Abstract
The disclosure is directed at a method and apparatus for determining virtual outputs for a multi-energy x-ray apparatus. Based on the application that the x-ray apparatus is being used for, a general algorithm can be determined or selected. Inputs received from the x-ray apparatus can be substituted into the general algorithm to generate a virtual output algorithm for the x-ray apparatus. Virtual outputs can then be calculated using the virtual output algorithm.
