ABSTRACT:
A cone beam scanning apparatus reduces image artifacts incident to cone beam geometry by decomposing an acquired image into soft tissue and bone and air images based on the density of the pixels in that image. The soft tissue image is filtered to remove frequency space data corresponding to zones of incomplete frequency space data in the original projection image to remove the generated artifacts.
