A new digital tomosynthesis method with less artifacts for angiography.

A new nonlinear reconstruction method for tomosynthesis is described. This method is suited for "dilute" objects, i.e., objects in which most of the voxels have negligibly small absorption. Images of blood vessels filled with contrast material approximate this condition if the background is subtracted. The technique has been tested experimentally using a wire phantom and a prepared human heart. The results show significantly less artifacts than the well-known back projection. It is possible to get diagnostic image quality with a few projections. The reconstruction algorithm can be realized with dedicated real-time hardware.
