Efficient Monte Carlo based scatter artifact reduction in cone-beam micro-CT

IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2006
Cupping and streak artifacts caused by the detection of scattered photons may severely degrade the quantitative accuracy of cone-beam X-ray computed tomography (CT) images. In order to overcome this problem, we propose and validate the following iterative scatter artifact reduction scheme.

Empirical scatter correction (esc): A new CT scatter correction method and its application to metal artifact reduction

IEEE Nuclear Science Symposuim & Medical Imaging Conference, 2010
Scatter artifacts impair the CT image quality and the accuracy of CT values. Especially in cases with metal implants and in wide cone-angle flat detector CT scans, scatter artifact removal can be of great value. Typical scatter correction methods try to estimate scattered radiation and subtract the estimated scatter from the uncorrected data.

A scatter artifact reduction technique in dual-energy computed tomography systems

SPIE Proceedings, 2011
Spectral CT research and development has recently become a hot topic in industry and in academia. Different approaches have been developed for spectral CT imaging. As a result of the capability to generate monochromatic-energy images, beam hardening artifacts have been largely reduced.

Reduction of scattering artifact in multislice CT

SPIE Proceedings, 2005
The new multi slice CT scanners are characterized by a wide coverage (collimation) in the longitudinal (z) direction. This large collimation provides large and rapid coverage, it may however introduce artifacts caused by scatter, which are enlarged with collimation. The scattering in the z direction induces artifacts that appear as dark shadows between
