ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a first set of projection data is acquired using a first portion of a detector and a second set of projection data is acquired using a second portion of the detector. The second set of projection data is supplemented based upon the first set of projection data to generate a supplemented set of projection data. A volumetric image may be generated using the supplemented set of projection data.
