Abstract

The current disclosure provides methods and systems to reduce an amount of noise in image data. In one example, a method for creating synthetic computed tomography (CT) images for training a model to reduce an amount of noise in acquired CT images is proposed, comprising performing a tissue segmentation of reference images of an anatomical region of a subject to determine a set of different tissue types of the reference images; and generating synthetic CT images of the reference images by assigning CT image values of the synthetic CT images based on the different tissue types.
