Abstract :
A true three-dimensional reconstruction (TTR) algorithm which is applicable to a cone beam with 4π detection geometry is introduced. The TTR differs from conventional slice by slice 3-D reconstruction methods. Promising areas of application for the TTR algorithm are position and X-ray computerized tomographic image reconstruction.
