Abstract:
An adaptive density mapping (ADM) method and system automatically identify interface regions between air and material tagged with contrast agents in computed tomographic (CT) image data, then map CT attenuations of voxels outside the identified interface regions, such that voxels that represent tagged material are made to represent air or another gas.
