ABSTRACT:
A method for reduced-artifact 3D-imaging of an imaging volume having an interfering element. A patient is positioned in a first position and a second positions spatially different from each other in an imaging device and first 3D-imaging and second 3D-imaging are performed with the interfering element lying within a first radiographic layer and a second radiographic layer. A first and second set of raw data of the imaging volume are provided with the first set having artifact-influenced raw data for the first radiographic layer and the second set having artifact-influenced raw data for the second radiographic layer and non-artifact influenced raw data for the first radiographic layer. A reduced-artifact 3D data set is created by combining the raw data sets or by calculating a first 3D image data set and a second 3D image data set from the raw data sets and combining the 3D image data sets.
