Abstract

The present invention provides a system and method for generating a CT slice image. The system comprises an MIP image generation module, a region of interest determination module, an angle setting module, a curve determination module, a match module and a slice generation module. The MIP image generation module generates MIP images of a reconstructed image; the region of interest determination module determines an image range in an original slice, and determines the parts of the MIP images within the image range as regions of interest; the angle setting module rotates the regions of interest to a plurality of specific angles for a plurality of times; the curve determination module generates a plurality of two-dimensional projected curves of the regions of interest for the plurality of specific angles; the match module selects a two-dimensional projected curve matching with a part to be diagnosed based on features of the plurality of two-dimensional projected curves; the slice generation module determines a slice position range and a slice angle based on the features of the matched curve and the corresponding specific angle.
