The disclosure includes: judging whether a center line of an object to be scanned is deviated from a rotation axis of a gantry of a CT scanning device; determining a first distance by which the center line of the object to be scanned is deviated from the rotation axis in a case that the center line of the object to be scanned is deviated from the rotation axis; determining according to the first distance a second distance by which the shape filter is to be translated in each projection angle; and controlling the shape filter to make it translate by the second distance in each corresponding projection angle.

Method and apparatus for controlling shape filter in CT scanning device

A method for correcting a CT scan image is provided. A target image including a target region to be corrected is extracted from an original CT scan image. A target projection range corresponding to the target region is obtained by orthographically projecting the target image, and target projection data within the target projection range is corrected. Noise of the corrected target projection data is adjusted to generate noise-adjusted target projection data to improve noise consistency between target region and the rest of the CT scan image. A corrected CT scan image is reconstructed based on the noise-adjusted target projection data.

Metal artifact correction and noise-adjustment of CT scan image

A method for processing metal artifacts in a CT image is provided. The method may comprise: performing a first metal artifact processing on the original image to obtain a first processed image COR1 and extracting the high frequency portion of the first processed image COR1 to obtain a first high-frequency image COR1HF; performing a second metal artifact processing on the original image to obtain a second processed image COR2 and extracting the high frequency portion of the processed image COR2 second to obtain a second high-frequency image COR2HF; perform a weighted combination the first processed image COR1, the first high-frequency image COR1HF and the second high-frequency image COR2HF by using a weighting function W to obtain a result image CORImp containing no metal artifact, but information of area near the metal artifact.
