Abstract
En 中文
As a potentially important technology for medical x-ray computed tomography (CT), lambda tomography (LT) is to reconstruct a gradient-like image only from local projection data. Based on our recently derived exact fan-beam LT formula, [H. Y. Gu and G. Wang, Int. J. Biomed. Imaging 2006(1), 1-9 (2006)] here we propose a practical cone-beam LT algorithm for LT reconstruction from local data collected along an arbitrary smooth three-dimensional curve. A key step in our algorithm is to determine an appropriate vector perpendicular to the line connecting the x-ray source and an image point. The algorithm is implemented assuming an equispatial planar detector and a nonstandard spiral trajectory. The numerical simulation results demonstrate the merits of our method.
