  • Patent number: 11410351
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may disclose a method for improving CT image quality. The method for improving the CT image quality may include obtaining SFS data. The SFS data may include SFS scan data or an SFS image. The SFS scan data may be acquired by a CT device in an SFS state. The SFS image may be generated by reconstructing scan data acquired by the CT device via scanning in the SFS state. The method may include generating a corresponding optimized image by processing the SFS data based on an image quality optimization model. The image quality optimization model may be a machine learning model. The present disclosure may simulate the SFS image as an FFS image using a deep neural network model, thereby improving a resolution of the SFS image and reduce artifacts in the SFS image.
