IMAGING SYSTEM FOR IMAGING AN OBJECT

摘要

The present invention relates to an imaging system for imaging an object (20) comprising a polychromatic radiation source (2) and an energy resolving radiation detector (6). The imaging system comprises further a driving device for moving the object (20) and the radiation source (2) relatively to each other, in order to acquire truncated projections from different directions. A calculation unit determines a k-edge component at least of one of the object (20) and a substance within the object (20) from the truncated projections and determines non-truncated projections from the determined k-edge component. A reconstruction unit constructs the object using the non-truncated projections.
