ABSTRACT:
An improved medical diagnostic imaging method and apparatus. In both, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Computed Tomography imaging artifacts caused by the finite number of directions from which imaging data is obtained is minimized. An image is constructed and then modified by adjusting each image element with contributions from neighboring picture elements. When all picture elements have been so modified an improved image approximating a result that would have been achieved by interpolating and then reconstructing image data is obtained.
