  • Publication number: 20210104023
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for image reconstruction. The system may obtain an initial image to be processed. The system may generate a reconstructed image by performing a plurality of iteration steps on the initial image. Each of the plurality of iteration steps may include a first optimization operation and at least one second optimization operation. The first optimization operation and the at least one second optimization operation may be executed sequentially. The first optimization operation may include receiving an image to be processed in the iteration step and determining an updated image by preliminarily optimizing the image to be processed. The at least one second optimization operation may include determining an optimized image by reducing interference information of the updated image and designating the optimized image as a next image to be processed in a next iteration step. The interference information may include noise information and/or artifact information.

    Abstract: The embodiments of the present disclosure disclose methods and systems for determining a ring artifact. The method for determining the ring artifact may include: obtaining an original image; mapping a plurality of pixels in the original image to a polar coordinate image; determining a protection region in the polar coordinate image; obtaining a smooth image by smoothing at least one region in the polar coordinate image other than the protection region; generating a residual image based on the polar coordinate image and the smooth image; determining a location of the ring artifact in the original image based on the residual image. In the present disclosure, the original image may be mapped to a trapezoidal region or a triangular region in the polar coordinate image, and the gradient angle image may be used for image processing, which may reduce the influence of noise. An accurate location of the ring artifact may be determined, and information for imaging device detection and air correction may be provided.
