As the expansion of Cone Beam CT (CBCT) to new interventional procedures continues, the burdensome challenge of metal artifacts remains. Photon starvation and beam hardening from metallic implants and surgical tools in the field of view can result in the anatomy of interest being partially or fully obscured by imaging artifacts. Leveraging the flexibility of modern robotic CBCT imaging systems, implementing non-circular orbits designed for reducing metal artifacts by ensuring data-completeness during acquisition has become a reality. Here, we investigate using non-circular orbits to reduce metal artifacts arising from metallic hip prostheses when imaging pelvic anatomy. As a first proof-of-concept, we implement a sinusoidal and a double-circle-arc orbit on a CBCT test bench, imaging a physical pelvis phantom, with two metal hip prostheses, housing a 3D-printed iodine-filled radial line-pair target. A standard circular orbit implemented with the CBCT test bench acted as comparator. Imaging data collection and processing, geometric calibration and image reconstruction was completed using in-house developed software programs. Imaging with the standard circular orbit, image artifacts were observed in the pelvic bones and only 33 out of the possible 45 line-pairs of the radial line-pair target were partially resolvable in the reconstructed images. Comparatively, imaging with both the sinusoid and double-circle-arc orbits reduced artifacts in the surrounding anatomy and enabled all 45 line-pairs to be visibly resolved in the reconstructed images. These results indicate the potential of non-circular orbits to assist in revealing previously obstructed structures in the pelvic region in the presence of metal hip prosthesis.
