  • Publication number: 20240144556
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a computed tomography imaging method and apparatus. The method includes pre-scanning an examined site by using an incomplete detector at a pitch factor of greater than 3 to obtain first data, axially scanning the examined site using the incomplete detector to obtain second data, stitching the first data and the second data to obtain third data; compensating the third data to obtain compensated third data, and performing image reconstruction by using the compensated third data to obtain a scanned image. Therefore, by performing two scans using an incomplete detector, stitching and compensating data obtained by the two scans, while reducing the total dose of X-rays, the integrity of the obtained data is ensured, and the image quality of the final obtained scanned image is maintained.

  • Publication number: 20230077083
    Abstract: Described herein are an imaging system and method. Specifically, the imaging system includes a positioning image acquisition unit configured to acquire positioning images of a scanned object from a plurality of angles, a contour estimation unit configured to estimate a contour of the object in each positioning image in a scanning direction when truncation is present in at least one positioning image, and a display field of view determination unit configured to select a maximum value of an estimated contour as a display field of view of the image. A contour of a scanned object in each positioning image in a scanning direction is estimated when truncation is present in at least one positioning image, thereby determining a suitable display field of view. An appropriate display field of view can be set, so that a reconstructed image can cover the entire contour of the object and have a higher resolution.
