Background:

Flat-detector computed tomography (CT) images are susceptible to concentric-ring artifacts.
These artifacts degrade the quality of reconstructed CT slices.
Existing methods for artifact correction have limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and validate a new method for suppressing concentric-ring artifacts in flat-detector CT.
To improve the quality of reconstructed CT slices.
To compare the proposed method with existing artifact correction techniques.

Main Methods:

A variation-based model utilizing L1-norm and L1/L1 unidirectional variation regularization terms was developed.
The model leverages the sparse and directional properties of ring artifacts in polar coordinates.
The alternating direction method of multipliers was employed to solve the minimization problem.
Nearest neighbor interpolation was identified as the optimal method for coordinate transformation.

Main Results:

The proposed method effectively suppresses concentric-ring artifacts in both simulated and real CT data.
The technique preserves important image structures and details.
Experimental results show superior performance compared to state-of-the-art coordinate transformation-based methods.

Conclusions:

The developed variation-based model offers an effective solution for correcting ring artifacts in flat-detector CT.
The method enhances image quality without compromising anatomical details.
This approach represents a significant advancement in CT image artifact reduction.
