Abstract
One or more example embodiments relates to a computer-implemented method for determining individual scattered-radiation images for X-ray image points to be considered in an X-ray image.

A computer-implemented method for determining individual scattered-radiation
- images for X-ray image points to be considered in an X-ray image, the method comprising:
- obtaining an X-ray image, the X-ray image includes a multiplicity of X-ray image points, each of the X-ray image points is associated with a detector region of an X-ray detector used to acquire the X-ray image,
- l, the X-ray image points are X-ray image points to be considered;
- providing an estimation algorithm, the estimation algorithm determines, based on the X-ray image, an associated individual scattered-radiation image for each of the X-ray image points to be considered,
- wherein each individual scattered-radiation image has a multiplicity of scattered-radiation image points, the multiplicity of scattered-radiation image points associated with a detector region of the X-ray detector,
- image values of the scattered-radiation image points of the individual scattered-radiation image correlate with an intensity of scattered radiation which, originating from a primary radiation incident on a detector region associated with the X-ray image point to be considered, is scattered onto the detector region associated with the particular scattered-radiation image point;
- and
- determining the associated individual scattered-radiation image for each of the X-ray image points to be considered by applying the estimation algorithm to the X-ray image.
