Calibration method for reducing ring artifacts in energy bin images for photon-counting ct

An apparatus and method for calibrating a photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) apparatus, includes performing for each offset from a rotation center, a scan of a calibration phantom placed at the offset to obtain calibration data including measured count rate data. Location parameters of the calibration phantom are estimated for each of the plurality of offsets, based on the obtained calibration data. Thickness data of the calibration phantom is determined based on the estimated location parameters. A curve is estimated, by curve fitting using the measured count rate data and the determined thickness data, indicating a relationship between the energy bin count rate and phantom thickness, for each energy bin of each pixel of the plurality of pixels. A first look-up table is generated for pixel-to-pixel count rate variation correction, and the first look-up table is applied to acquired energy bin count data to reduce ring artifacts in an image reconstructed using the acquired energy bin count data. A second look-up table is generated for both pixel-to-pixel count rate variation correction and additional count-rate non-linearity correction, using water as the calibration material, and the second look-up table is applied to reduce both ring artifacts and cupping or doming artifacts in an image reconstructed using the acquired energy bin count data.

Systems and methods for automatic ultrasound 3D point detection and selection for ultrasound probe registration for navigation

A system generates a navigation space and a virtual space based on images. The virtual space includes a calibration phantom comprising a pair of protrusions or a single protrusion. The system also identifies multiple sets of coordinates in the virtual space based on the intersection of an imaging device projection with the pair or single protrusion, and determines an optimal set of coordinates in the virtual space based on a first event of the imaging device projection intersecting with the midpoint of each protrusion in the pair, or a second event of the imaging device projection intersecting with the tip of a single protrusion. In response to the first event and based on the optimal set of coordinates, the system also calibrates a first coordinate system associated with the virtual space relative to a second coordinate system associated with the navigation space.
