Abstract
Implementations of the present technology include error mitigation processes that determine gantry angle-dependent measures of detector deflections for a given class of systems using a first method, then determine gantry angle-independent deviations from the class measures using a second method on a specific system; then apply, to the specific system of the second method, the gantry angle-dependent class deflection results of the first method modified by the system-specific gantry angle independent deflections of the second method; and further include a system calibrated by such combinations of processes and computer program products for performing at least portions of the combination of processes.
