发明名称 Method and apparatus for enhancing the contrast of a medical diagnostic image that includes foreign objects
摘要 An x-ray system (100) is provided utilizing an x-ray source (102) and a detector to create x-ray data in a region of interest. The x-ray data comprises anatomic data, from the anatomy of a patient (104), and non-anatomic data, from a structure foreign to the patient (104). The anatomic and non-anatomic data may have non-overlapping grayscale distribution. A reject level (210) is identified along the grayscale distribution. A processor module selects a minimum value for a transfer function (212) based on the reject level (210) and automatically calculates the transfer function (212) to convert the x-ray data to display values. An x-ray image is then displayed based on the display values.
