Abstract
A mechanism for reducing the appearance of tagged elements in a medical image. This is achieved by processing the medical image to generate a separate, suppression image that contains only the tagged elements. The medical image and the suppression image are then combined to reduce the appearance of the tagged elements in the medical image. This can be achieved through modification of the suppressed image, before the combination, and/or weighting of the medical image and the suppression image during combination.
