Abstract

An X-ray system comprises an assembly that is moveable to different scan coordinates to acquire X-ray projection images at the different scan coordinates in a dynamic mode while the assembly is moving. The assembly is also moveable to a predetermined reference coordinate to acquire an X-ray projection image at the predetermined reference coordinate in a static mode while the assembly is resting. The X-ray system also comprises a processor configured to obtain dynamic gain calibration parameters from the X-ray projection images acquired in the dynamic mode at one of the different scan coordinates; obtain a static gain calibration parameter from the X-ray projection image acquired in the static mode at the predetermined reference coordinate; and determine adjusted dynamic gain calibration parameters.
