X-RAY CT DEVICE, CALCURATION DEVICE, RECORDING MEDIUM FOR X-RAY CT DEVICE, AND MAINTENANCE METHOD FOR X-RAY CT DEVICE

In X-ray CT devices, degradation of quantitative determination ability for CT values resulting from the beam hardening (BH) effect of X-ray is prevented. X-ray absorption characteristic S obtained by simulation and a target value T thereof are saved beforehand, the simulation value S is revised by using projection data measured by maintenance measurement for obtaining basic data required for BH correction, and a BH correction coefficient is calculated by using the revised X-ray absorption characteristic S and the target value T. With a few actually measured values, BH correction accuracy can be improved, and reduction of incorrect diagnosis resulting from inhomogeneity of the CT values and improvement in the diagnostic ability based on improvement in quantitative determination ability for the CT values can be realized.
