Abstract: | A hybrid reconstruction algorithm (HRA) is derived for fan beam geometry for use with systems utilizing a linear array of detectors. The algorithm uses fan beam geometry with a modified parallel beam reconstruction formula. The parallel beam algorithm is used with fan beam geometry by a simple geometric conversion and a different back projection formula. Correction for center of rotation shift is done during the back projection. Computer simulations are shown, both with the center of rotation shift uncorrected and corrected. |
