Artifact Reduction

Artifact reduction refers to techniques used in imaging, such as MRI or CT scans, to minimize errors or distortions—called artifacts—that can obscure true details. These artifacts may result from patient movement, hardware limitations, or environmental factors, leading to unclear images. Reducing artifacts improves the clarity and accuracy of the images, helping healthcare professionals make better diagnoses. Techniques for artifact reduction include advanced software algorithms, improved scanning protocols, and hardware improvements that address common sources of disruptions, ensuring the resulting images more accurately represent the internal structures being examined.
