ABSTRACT:
A method for reconstructing an image of an object includes unwrapping a reduced field of view image, and estimating edge boundaries using the unwrapped reduced field of view image. The estimated edge boundaries are used to calculate the number of aliasing replicates in the reduced field of view image. The number of aliasing replicates is used to unwrap the reduced field of view image.
