    This study introduces a new method for computed tomography (CT) image modification by transforming attenuation values. This technique enhances image visualization for quantitative organ analysis using CT scans.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Radiology
    • Image Processing

    Background:

    • Traditional computed tomography (CT) image modification techniques include window setting, highlighting, color reversal, and logarithmic distortion.
    • These methods primarily manipulate the display of existing attenuation values within a given matrix.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and describe a novel method for CT image modification through attenuation value transformation.
    • To explore the impact of this transformation on CT image reproduction, particularly for quantitative organ analysis.

    Main Methods:

    • The proposed method involves transforming all measured CT values into CT quotients (CTQ).
    • These CTQ values are then divided into five user-defined intervals.
    • Linear transformation is applied to the intermediate three intervals, with the first and last intervals accommodating user-selected CTQ ranges.

    Main Results:

    • The study discusses how this attenuation value transformation influences CT image reproduction.
    • This manipulation is crucial for improving the visualization of quantitative organ analysis results obtained from CT scans.

    Conclusions:

    • The described linear interval-by-interval attenuation value transformation offers a new approach to CT image enhancement.
    • This method holds significant potential for improving the accuracy and clarity of quantitative analyses in medical imaging.
