A method of performing a computed tomographic image reconstruction is provided. The method provides for performing a short scan of an imaging object to acquire a short scan data, performing a plurality of image reconstructions based on the short scan data wherein the plurality of image reconstructions result in a corresponding plurality of image volumes wherein the image reconstructions use different view weighting functions, filtering the plurality of image volumes such that when the volumes are added together, the frequency domain data is substantially uniformly weighted. Further, the method provides for combining the plurality of image volumes together to produce a final image volume.
