Abstract
A method of x-ray projection geometry calibration in x-ray cone beam computed tomography, including: at least one step (S) of obtaining two-dimensional x-ray images or a sinogram of at least a part of an object, generated through relatively rotating around the object a detector and an x-ray source projecting x-rays towards the detector; further including: at least one step (S) of detecting in the two dimensional x-ray images or the sinogram at least one feature of the object by using a trained artificial intelligence algorithm; and at least one step of creating, based on the detection, calibration information which defines the geometry of the x-ray projection.
