    摘要: In an X-ray CT apparatus having a multi-slice detector, the retrospective ECG (Electrocardiography) gating imaging is applied to helical scans. Discontinuity of projection data generated in the scans is interpolated using data at a heartbeat time phase in 180-degree opposite relation to reduce motion artifacts. Further, projection data at an arbitrary slicing position and in at arbitrary heartbeat time phase are formed utilizing continuous divided projection data obtained above, and by properly combining or gathering them, a tomogram of whole heart, a three-dimensional image thereof, and further, a three-dimensional cardiac moving image in heartbeat time phases with an arbitrary time interval can be continuously and smoothly created.

Opposition difference data showing the difference between the projection data having the phase difference of 180.degree. from each other and having a phase difference of 180.degree. from each other are alternately arranged to obtain the opposition difference data of the high resolution, and an opposition difference image is reconstructed on the basis of the opposition difference data of the high resolution. Then, distortion components showing the high-frequency component are extracted from the aforesaid opposition difference image, and the aforesaid reconstructed CT image is corrected by the thus extracted distortion components, so that motion artifacts contained in the original CT image can be reduced.
