Abstract
A computer-implemented method, performed by a computing device, comprises: receiving raw multispectral medical imaging data, which was acquired via an energy-resolved medical imaging technique; determining a scope of analysis of the raw multispectral medical imaging data; selecting at least one spectral map based on the scope of analysis; and processing the raw multispectral medical imaging data to generate at least one medical image based on the at least one spectral map.
