A metal artifact reduction algorithm in CT using multiple prior images by recursive active contour segmentation
We propose a novel metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm for CT images that completes a corrupted sinogram along the metal trace region. When metal implants are located inside a field of view, they create a barrier to the transmitted X-ray beam due to the high attenuation of metals, which significantly degrades the image quality. To fill in the metal trace region efficiently, the proposed al...
متن کاملA New Method for Metal Artifact Reduction in CT Scan Images
Introduction In CT imaging, metallic implants inside the tissues cause metal artifact that reduce the quality of image for diagnosis. In order to reduce the effect of this artifact, a new method with more appropriate results has been presented in this research work. Materials and Methods The presented method comprised of following steps: a) image enhancement and metal areas extraction, b) sinog...
متن کاملMetal artifact reduction in CT using fusion based prior image.
PURPOSE In computed tomography, metallic objects in the scanning field create the so-called metal artifacts in the reconstructed images. Interpolation-based methods for metal artifact reduction (MAR) replace the metal-corrupted projection data with surrogate data obtained from interpolation using the surrounding uncorrupted sinogram information. Prior-based MAR methods further improve interpola...
متن کاملMetal Artifact Reduction of Dental Fillings in Head and Neck CT Images
Introduction: The issue of metal artifact and its reduction is as old as the clinical use of computed tomography itself. When metal objects such as dental fillings, hip prostheses or surgical clips are present in the computed tomography (CT) field of view (FOV), make severe artifacts that reduce the image quality and accuracy of CT numbers. They can lead to unreliable ...
متن کاملmetal artifact reduction and segmentation of dental computerized tomography images using least square support vector machine and mean shift algorithm
segmentation and three‑dimensional (3d) visualization of teeth in dental computerized tomography (ct) images are of dentists’ requirements for both abnormalities diagnosis and the treatments such as dental implant and orthodontic planning. on the other hand, dental ct image segmentation is a difficult process because of the specific characteristics of the tooth’s structure. this paper presents ...
