METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RECONSTRUCTION ALGORITHM IN CONE BEAM CT WITH DIFFERENTIATION IN ONE DIRECTION ON DETECTOR

摘要

The current invention is generally related to a data acquisition and or image processing method and system for acquiring and or processing sparse channel data. The sparse channel is implemented in a data acquisition system having a predetermined wider pitch between the adjacent detector cells than that in the currently available imaging systems at least in one predetermined direction. In one implementation, the sparse channel data is acquired by the sparse channel data acquisition system, and an image is reconstructed from the sparse channel data according to a predetermined chord based reconstruction method eliminating the differentiation along the channel direction and utilizing a pair of proper weights.
