Abstract
We propose a method to estimate line data from scanogram in a CT scan. Combining the circle data with the estimated line data, we can reconstruct the volumetric images by use of an exact filtered backprojection or backprojection filtration algorithm for circle-line trajectories. The results show that the streak artifacts are reduced significantly compared to that of circle-only reconstruction.
