Abstract
A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores instructions readable and executable by at least one electronic processor () to perform an image reconstruction method (). The method includes: performing iterative image reconstruction of imaging data acquired using an image acquisition device (); selecting an update image from a plurality of update images produced by the iterative image reconstruction; processing the selected update image to generate a hot spot artifact map; and suppressing hot spots identified by the generated hot spot artifact map in a reconstructed image output by the iterative image reconstruction.
