    摘要: When imaging a compact structure, such as a calcium deposit in a patient's heart, a slow scan (e.g., less than approximately 6 rpm) CT data acquisition is performed, wherein data is continuously but sparsely acquired during around a 360° revolution around the patient. Arc segments are defined that equate to one heart cycle (e.g., heartbeat) given the patient's heart rate and the speed of the CT gantry. Electrocardiogram signal data is used to identify sets of acquired projection data that correspond to each of a plurality of heart cycle phases during which the heart is relatively still. A sparse reconstruction algorithm is executed on the identified sets of sparse projection data to generate images for each heart cycle phase from the scan data acquired for that phase across all heart cycles.

The transformation component (210) transforms projection data in each view of a plurality of individual segments, which each includes at least one view. The transformed projection data for substantially similar views across the plurality of individual segments have a common radius of rotation. The segment combiner (212) combines the transformed projection data to produce a single data set that includes the transformed projection data for each of the views of each of the plurality of individual segments.

    摘要: In an imaging method, estimated data is iteratively projected and backprojected. The iterative projecting and backprojecting includes projecting or backprojecting the estimated data along parallel paths each employing energy-dependent parameters appropriate for a different energy. During each iteration, the estimated data is adjusted based on comparison of the estimated data with measured data.

    摘要: A medical imaging system (10) includes at least one radiation detection head (16) disposed adjacent a subject receiving aperture (18) to detect radiation from a subject. The detected radiation is reconstructed into at least one initial 2D projection image (μ). Resolution in each initial 2D image (μ) is restored by using the extended iterative constrained deconvolution algorithm by incorporating different estimates of the system response function which estimates correspond to different distances between the detection head and the origins of the detected radiation. Measured response functions are used to restore a series of images. The optimal image is determined by automatic searching with the figure of merit, by user's observation, or by using blind deconvolution for a concurrent estimating of the system response function and updating the original image.
