ABSTRACT:
Parallel accumulation of the density functions of image picture elements is done for a number of elements located at the same radial distance from the axis of rotation for the fan-beam scanner. This allows the computation of weighting factor to be done in common for these elements, as well as the computation of interpolation coefficients for ray sums not registering exactly with x-ray detectors.
