ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for reconstructing a tomographic image from fan-beam or cone-beam data. The method includes the steps of collecting fan-beam or cone-beam data over an image space, converting the fan-beam or cone-beam data to parallel-beam data with respect to a rotation angle within the image space, performing a shift variant filtration of the parallel-beam data within the image space and converting the processed data to images through backprojection or other means.
