In an improved method and apparatus for cone-beam reconstruction, an improved detector array is provided in an asymmetric shape with respect to the translation axis. In a first embodiment, a standard symmetric array is rotated by a tilt angle alpha about the beam axis. In a second embodiment, the array is formed to have a substantially helical contour. In this manner, efficient use of detector elements is achieved, system pitch is increased, and image quality is enhanced. |
