ABSTRACT:
Time-series data over the range of a projection angle is created from a sinogram. Then, time-series data made up of opposite data corresponding to the time-series data over the range of a projection angle is created. Based on the amount of the error between the two types of time-series data, the amount of position deviation of a revolution axis is calculated.
