Development of CT Metal Artifact Reduction Algorithm for use in Radiotherapy Treatment Planning System
Computed Tomography (CT) images serve many benefit in radiology as well as radiotherapy treatment. Unfortunately the metal type inhomogeneities such as metal amalgam results a metal streak artifact in the images and thus raise errors in treatment planning system (TPS) [1,2]. In radiotherapy erro...

| Summary: | Computed Tomography (CT) images serve many benefit in radiology as well
as radiotherapy treatment. Unfortunately the metal type inhomogeneities
such as metal amalgam results a metal streak artifact in the images and
thus raise errors in treatment planning system (TPS) [1,2]. In radiotherapy
errors of radiation delivery can cause various side effects to patient. For this
reason a metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm was developed in
MATLAB platform to give a satisfaction in image quality and thus to TPS. |
