    Abstract: An imaging system, such as a DBT system, is provided that is capable of providing processing of an image from initial generation/reconstruction of the image through the review of the image by a radiologist or other practitioner that produces images optimized for the particular task/process performed using the images. The task/review that the radiologist is performing on the processed or reconstructed image can be modeled with regard to the initial generation of the processed or reconstructed images from the raw images or the model considerations can be retroactively applied and back propagated through the image processing performed by the system. These modeling considerations that can take the form of an indicator of clinical performance is/are used by the system to optimize and produce an image(s) that best represents the items in the image necessary for an accurate diagnosis of the patient when reviewed by the radiologist.

    Abstract: In the present invention, an imaging system and method for providing contrast-enhanced X-ray images of tissue includes an energy source in communication with a detector operable to generate radiological images of the tissue injected with the contrast agent, a display and a computer connected to the display and to receive the acquired images from the detector. The system is operable to acquire a number of first images of the contrast agent in the tissue, wherein the number of first images are single energy images, and a number of second images corresponding to the number of first images, wherein the second images are each a single energy image with an energy level opposite that for the first images. The first and second images are combined to generate a contrast-enhanced image with reduced exposure of the tissue and reduced time for completion of the procedure.

    Abstract: Method and system for obtaining tomosynthesis and material decomposition images of an object of interest using a system comprising an x-ray source facing a detector. The method comprises generating a 2D material decomposition image of an object of interest from at least two sets of acquisitions. Each set is performed at a different energy spectrum and comprises at least one projection image or a plurality of projection images acquired at different x-ray source angulation positions, and the 2D material decomposition image can be generated for a predetermined orientation selected from one of said different x-ray source angulation positions or from a virtual orientation. At least one of the plurality of 3D volume portion images and/or the 2D contrast enhanced material decomposition image are displayed for review by a health care professional.
