ABSTRACT:
In a computed tomography apparatus with a volume reconstruction by a three-dimensional gridding algorithm an arithmetic unit and method for operating same are provided for efficiently implementing the three-dimensional gridding algorithm. In this arithmetic unit and method, randomly-distributed supporting points SP are weighted in the frequency space in order to be able to apply a 3D gridding algorithm for a three-dimensional Fourier reconstruction for a computed tomography apparatus. An ASIC is provided wherein the supporting point weighting and the 3D gridding algorithm are efficiently implemented.
