However, CT scans can be truncated due to obese or misaligned patients who extend outside the scanner’s field of view. The goal of this project was to develop a method to reconstruct truncated CT scans using modern image processing and deep learning techniques. We used image processing to extract the contour of the body, and then use a Convolutional Neural Network to infer missing regions of the body to be synthesized with a voxel filling algorithm. Our method accurately corrects CT scans for use in SPECT attenuation correction at minimal cost to medical professionals while facilitating better diagnoses of cardiac patients."|"" |"" |"" |"" |"http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"|"" |"Worcester Polytechnic Institute"|"2017-03-23" |"" |"" |"E-project-032317-191937"|"" |"" |"" |"" |"W/"4148d21ac8e4618a22f8ba975aff62b6568db7e5""|"https://digital.wpi.edu/show/9306t194z"
