    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system and method with which an imaged range in the past can be reproduced with high precision. In accordance with certain embodiments, an X-ray CT apparatus includes a camera-image producing section for producing a first camera image of a patient, a landmark fixing section for fixing a landmark with reference to a chest of the patient, and an imaged-range defining section for defining a first imaged range in a first scan based on landmark data representing the landmark. The camera-image producing section acquires a second camera image of the patient in a follow-up examination, the landmark fixing section fixes a second landmark with reference to the chest of the patient contained in the second image, and the imaged-range defining section defines second imaged range in a second scan based on landmark data representing the landmarks, and imaged-range data representing the first imaged range.

    Abstract: To provide a technique with which dose indices can be managed for body parts in a range to be imaged on a body part-by-body part basis, an X-ray CT apparatus comprises: image producing unit (51) for producing a scout image (10) of a patient; defining unit (52) for defining a range (11) to be imaged in the scout image (10); segmenting unit (53) for segmenting the range (11) to be imaged into two body parts; identifying unit (54) for identifying which one of body parts (12) included in a human body each of the two body parts corresponds to; and calculating unit (55) for calculating a dose index for each of the two body parts.

    Abstract: A method is provided including acquiring imaging data of an object to be imaged from a computed tomography (CT) detector. The method also includes reconstructing the acquired imaging data into an initial reconstruction image, and performing material characterization of an image volume of the initial reconstruction image to provide a re-mapped image volume. Further, the method includes performing forward projection on the re-mapped image volume to provide forward projection data, and providing an error projection based on the forward projection data. Also, the method includes filtering at least one of the initial reconstruction image, the re-mapped image volume, the forward projection data, or the error projection. The method also includes using the error projection to update the initial reconstruction image to provide an updated reconstruction image.
