摘要
In this paper, we present an innovative iterative algorithm for tomographic reconstruction. Algebraic reconstruction technique (ART) which is considered as the core of iterative approach has been enhanced to ensure much finer and faster reconstruction. Backprojection has been customized to make it work even when the projections are not uniformly distributed. Contour information of the object has been combined with customized backprojection to ensure a better initial guess to start ART iterations. Based on experiments with both simulated and real medical images it has been shown that the proposed modality is capable of computing more accurate reconstructions in addition with lower computational cost than traditional ART.
