Clinical CT images including metal artifacts. (a) ClinicalImage1 is a chest image with artifacts caused by metallic suture material; (b) ClinicalImage2 is a brain image with artifacts caused by one golden earring; (c) ClinicalImage3 is a brain image with artifacts caused by two golden earrings. Note that the image quality is severely degraded by metal artifacts.
