CT image reconstruction through employment of function that describes interpreted movement of source around particular point of object

摘要

A CT system in an example comprises an x-ray source, a detector, a data acquisition system (DAS), and a computer. The x-ray source emits a beam of x-rays toward an object to be imaged. The detector receives x-rays emitted by the x-ray source. The DAS is operably connected to the detector. The computer is operably connected to the DAS. The computer is programmed to reconstruct a CT image of the object to comprise a plurality of CT images, of a respective plurality of points of the object, through employment of a function that describes how many times a trajectory curve, of an interpretation of relative movement between the x-ray source and the object as that of the x-ray source, goes around each of the plurality of points of the object.
