    摘要: A method of preprocessing incomplete or truncated projections obtained from high resolution CT scanning of a small scan circle corresponding to a limited region of interest within the scanned object. An air calibration is performed to obtain a set of air values. The intensity values obtained during the partial area scan are subtracted from the air values to convert .the intensity values to attenuation values. The approximate slope at either end of the truncated projection is then calculated. Based on the attenuation values and the slope the necessary extrapolation of the truncated projection is performed to complete the projection. No measurements, ionizing or otherwise, are required from the region outside of the small scan circle. The completed projection is ready for conventional reconstruction techniques involving convolution and backprojection.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for minimizing a streaking effect found in reconstructed images obtained from high resolution CT scanning of a small scan circle that corresponds to a limited region of interest, such as portions of the spinal cord of a patient, particularly in scans that include concentrated high density material, such as bone, situated outside the small scan circle. The approximate range of view angles that will project bone from outside the limited region of interest is determined. Detectors corresponding to the determined region are selected out. The projection data acquired by the selected detectors is filtered. The filtering is accomplished by convolving the projection data with a preselected filter function or in machine implemented form by passing the electrical signal representing the projection data through a low pass filter.
