Method for correcting truncation artifacts

摘要

The invention relates to a method for correcting truncation artifacts in a reconstruction method for computed tomography recordings. The projection images are recorded by an x-ray image detector being extended by determining the attenuation of the radiation outside the projection image for pixels. Non-horizontal filter lines are extended by transaxial and axial artificial extension of the x-ray image detector for the purposes of truncation correction. The truncation correction for non-horizontal filter lines being carried out according to a method from at least one of the following groups: truncation correction takes place regardless of the specific location and orientation of the filter lines; truncation correction takes place as a function of the specific position and orientation of the filter lines, with the filter lines themselves being retained; and truncation correction takes place by introducing new modified filter lines, with filtering taking place along offset artificially extended filter lines.
