ABSTRACT:
The present invention, in one form, is a method for detecting a partial volume artifact in scan data acquired during a tomographic scan. In accordance with one embodiment of the algorithm, an object of interest is scanned to generate scan data. Sampling pairs of the scan data are identified and used to generate an inconsistency map. The inconsistency map is weighted and filtered to generate a partial volume signature which identifies partial volume artifacts.
