CT systems with oblique image planes

摘要

A method for reconstructing one or more non-axial image slices in a CT scanner, comprising: acquiring X-ray attenuation data over an axial range; and processing the attenuation data to determine CT values at a plurality of points along one or more surface corresponding respectively to each one or more non-axial image slices, wherein processing the attenuation data comprises back-projecting the data directly to the plurality of points along each of the one or more surfaces.
