Résumé

The projection data generated via the forward projection of a computed tomography (CT) image (FP-data) have useful potentials in cases where only image data are available. However, there is a question of whether the FP-data generated from an image severely corrupted by metal artifacts can be used for the metal artifact reduction (MAR). The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of a MAR technique using FP-data by comparing its performance with that of a conventional robust MAR using projection data normalization (NMARconv). The NMAR
