Abstract

The invention provides a data recovery method for original CT projection data. The data recovery method for the original CT projection data comprises determining a region to be estimated and a confidence region adjacent to the region to be estimated in the original CT projection data; and carrying out at least one of a first treatment and a second treatment. The first treatment comprises carrying out data fitting on the CT projection data in the confidence region in order to obtain a spatial curved surface equation; and reestimating the CT projection data of the region to be estimated in dependence on the spatial curved surface equation. The second treatment comprises obtaining a plurality of texture direction messages distributed in the confidence region in dependence on the CT projection data in the confidence region; determining one or more matched line in the region to be estimated in dependence on each texture direction message with each matched line passing through at least one data point to be estimated and being matched with at least one texture direction; and carrying out interpolation operation along the matched lines in order to reestimate the CT projection data in the region to be estimated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of X-ray imaging, in particular to a data restoration method and device for original CT projection data, and a CT imaging system. Background technique [0002] In computed tomography (CT) medical imaging technology, the original data collected from the detector are arranged into a two-dimensional matrix with the detector channel as the horizontal axis and the scanning field of view as the vertical axis, which is used as the original CT projection for image reconstruction Data, also known as a sinogram, is essentially a superposition of curves formed by points on the image. For example, if the acquired CT projection data is reconstructed into an image with a size of 512*512, then any point on the image is a curved trajectory in the matrix of the original CT projection data, and the amplitude of the curved trajectory depends on The distance between the point and the center of rotation of the virtual acquisition, the gr...
