Abstract
A data processing technique is provided. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes receiving a set of dynamic computed tomography image data from a computed tomography imaging system, registering the image data, applying a smoothing filter to at least a selection of the registered image data, and outputting the results. The smoothing filter may be, for example, a uniform filter, a triangular filter, a Gaussian filter, a median filter, a percentile filter, a Kuwahara filter, an anisotropic filter, or any combination thereof. Additional methods, systems, and devices are also disclosed.
