Abstract
In this work, three different reconstruction algorithms for short scan helical cone-beam CT are compared: Two approximate algorithms, PI-SLANT and WVEDGE-PI, with the recently published exact algorithm by Katsevich. It is shown that WEDGE-PI performs as well as the exact method for a 64 row scanner and almost as well for a 128 row scanner. PI-SLANT produces significantly more artifacts, in particular for the 128 row scanner.
