<p>A method of and apparatus for automatically calibrating a computed tomography ("CT") scanning system (100) is provided including providing (405) a calibration object (130) substantially centered on a translating table (120) for passing through the CT system (100). The system (100) scans (410) the calibration object (130) and provides (420) a preliminary representation such as a display (500) of a sorted sinogram of the object (130). From that preliminary representation, the system (100) determines intercept-related and/or slope-related values for at least a portion (510, 520, 530 or 540) of the preliminary representation and uses these values to calculate (440) one or more predetermined calibrations values.</p> |
