Abstract
A correction method for a scatter signal caused by a wedge filter includes: S: performing an air scan by using CT equipment, and calculating a relative intensity Wof a scatter signal caused by a wedge filter in the air scan according to an air scan result, S: performing an object scan on a plurality of experimental objects by using the CT equipment, and calculating theoretical scatter signal intensities Wof the experimental objects in the object scan in combination with the result of S, S: fitting Wof the experimental objects in the object scan and scatter signal intensity estimations Wof the experimental objects in the object scan, and S: correcting the scan results according to a difference between a scatter signal intensity estimation Wof an actual object in the object scan and a theoretical scatter signal intensity Wof the actual object in the object scan.
