Addressing CT metal artifacts using photon‐counting detectors and one‐step spectral CT image reconstruction

Abstract

The constrained one‐step spectral CT image reconstruction (cOSSCIR) algorithm with a nonconvex alternating direction method of multipliers optimizer is proposed for addressing computed tomography (CT) metal artifacts caused by beam hardening, noise, and photon starvation. The quantitative performance of cOSSCIR is investigated through a series of photon‐counting CT simulations.
