Abstract:
A tomography apparatus that may reduce partial scan artifacts includes: a data acquirer configured to acquire tomography data when X-rays are emitted as a cone beam to an object while rotating by one cycle angular section that is less than one rotation; and an image reconstructor configured to reconstruct a tomography image by using corrected tomography data that is obtained by applying to the tomography data a weight that is set based on at least one of a view that is included in the one cycle angular section and a cone angle in the cone beam.
