An Iterative Method for Computed Tomography Machine Calibration: Attenuation and Dual-Energy Computed Tomography Inversion from the Hounsfield Numbers
Introduction: Photoelectric effect and X-ray scattering determine the attenuation coefficient of materials in diagnostic radiology. This manuscript presents an iterative gradient search method to separate the contributions to attenuation from these two independent sources. This issue assumes importa...
