A method and apparatus for acquiring scanning cone beam projection data along a three dimensional scanning trajectory is disclosed. The technique ensures acquisition of a substantially uniform distribution of Radon data that is sufficiently complete for exact image reconstruction of an object irradiated by a scanning cone beam source. By choosing a scanning trajectory whose planar projection onto a plurality of coaxial planes, when taken together, forms a continuous, convex, closed curve about a corresponding projection of the object being scanned; the Radon information obtained therefrom is complete and information coverage is uniform over the region of support of the object. Accordingly, this condition provides a practical, easy to implement, visual method for evaluating candidate three dimensional scanning trajectories.
