Tomographic image reconstruction from limited projections using iterative revisions in image and transform spaces

Abstract

An iterative technique is proposed for improving the quality of reconstructions from projections when the number of projections is small or the angular range of projections is limited. The technique consists of transforming repeatedly between image and transform spaces and applying a priori object information at each iteration. The approach is a generalization of the Gerchberg-Papoulis algorithm, a technique for extrapolating in the Fourier domain by imposing a space-limiting constraint on the object in the spatial domain. A priori object data that may be applied, in addition to truncating the image beyond the known boundaries of the object, include limiting the maximum range of variation of the physical parameter being imaged. The results of computer simulations show clearly how the process of forcing the image to conform to a priori object data reduces artifacts arising from limited data available in the Fourier domain.
