1. A medical imaging system comprising:
at least one medical imaging device providing image data of a subject;
a processing system programmed to:
generate a plurality of training images having simulated medical conditions, wherein the medical conditions include metal implants;
train a deep learning network model using the plurality of training images;
input the image data of the subject to the deep learning network model; and
generate a medical image of the subject based on the output of the deep learning network model;
wherein the processing system is programmed to generate the plurality of training images by blending a pathology region from a plurality of template source images to a plurality of target images; and
wherein the deep learning network model is trained to reduce artifacts in the image data corresponding to metal implants.
