The image reconstruction algorithms discussed in Chapter 2 are for parallelbeam imaging. If the data acquisition system produces projections that are not along parallel lines, the image reconstruction algorithms presented in Chapter 2 cannot be applied directly. This chapter uses the flat detector and curved detector fan-beam imaging geometries to illustrate how a parallelbeam reconstruction algorithm can be converted to user’s imaging geometry for image reconstruction.
