EFFICIENT INVERSION OF THE CONE BEAM TRANSFORM FOR A GENERAL CLASS OF CURVES
- Date Issued:
- 2007
- Abstract/Description:
- We extend an efficient cone beam transform inversion formula, proposed earlier for helices, to a general class of curves. The conditions that describe the class are very natural. Curves C are smooth, without self-intersections, have positive curvature and torsion, do not bend too much in a certain sense, and do not admit lines which are tangent to C at one point and intersect C at another point. A domain U is found where reconstruction is possible with a filtered backprojection type algorithm. Results of numerical experiments demonstrate very good image quality. The algorithm developed is useful for image reconstruction in computerized tomography.
