Abstract: An X-ray CT system includes an X-ray tube, an X-ray detector and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to cyclically change energy of the X-rays during one rotation of the X-ray tube around a subject. The processing circuitry is configured to perform a process including a correcting process addressing a difference in a transmission amount between X-rays having first energy and X-rays having second energy, on at least one selected from between: a plurality of first projection data sets acquired when the X-rays having the first energy were radiated; and a plurality of second projection data sets acquired when the X-rays having the second energy were radiated. The processing circuitry is configured to reconstruct an image on the basis of a combined data set generated on the basis of a plurality of projection data sets including the projection data sets resulting from the process.

Abstract: An X-ray CT system according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry configured to: execute first scanning of acquiring a first subject data set corresponding to first X-ray energy by irradiating a first region of a subject with X-rays; execute, after the first scanning, second scanning of acquiring a second subject data set corresponding to second X-ray energy and a third subject data set corresponding to third X-ray energy different from the second X-ray energy by irradiating a second region included in the first region with X-rays; and perform material decomposition among a plurality of reference materials based on: a fourth subject data set obtained based on the first subject data set and one of the second subject data set and the third subject data set; and the other of the second subject data set and the third subject data set.
