ABSTRACT:
It is an object of the invention to provide spiral computer tomography which has a high image quality. It relates to a reconstruction method for computer tomography of the heart, wherein the image is reconstructed from a data component of recordings of a partial detector path of a detector device and from a data component of recordings of a full detector path of the detector device, and to a computer tomograph having a beam source, a drive arrangement for driving the beam source in a spiral path around an object, a detector device for recording the radiation from the beam source which passes at least partially through the object, and a control device for reconstructing data components of a partial detector path and a full detector path.
