    Abstract: The invention relates to an imaging system for imaging a region of interest comprising a moving object, which moves less in small motion phases than in large motion phases. Detection values are provided and a small motion determination unit (15) determines the motion of the object in the region of interest in the small motion phases from the 5 detection values. A large motion determination unit (16) determines the motion of the object in the large motion phases from the determined motion of the object in the small motion phases. A reconstruction unit (17) reconstructs an image of the region of interest from the detection values, wherein the reconstruction unit (17) is adapted for performing a motion compensation using the determined motions in the small and large motion phases.

    Abstract: The increasing cone angle of current high-end and future CT systems leads to a decrease in image quality if approximate cone-beam reconstruction methods are used. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an iterative four-dimensional cardiac CT reconstruction is provided, in which phase volumes are selected from the four-dimensional data set, each having the same spatial volume at different phase points. Corresponding voxels inside these phase volumes are then forward projected onto the same projection. After calculation of a different projection, these voxels are updated. This may provide for an efficient implementation of an iterative four-dimensional cardiac cone-beam CT reconstruction.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the three-dimensional reconstruction of the flow conditions in a vascular system (3), in which, in a first phase after the beginning of a contrast-medium injection, X-ray projection pictures are produced from the same direction (A) at a high picture-taking rate in order to observe the inflow of the contrast medium. When the contrast medium fills the vascular system (3), a rotation of the X­ray device (1) takes place during which projection pictures are produced at a lower picture­taking rate and/or at a lower radiation dose, from which pictures the three-dimensional structure of the vascular tree can be reconstructed. Optionally, at the end of the rotation, projection pictures may again be taken from a fixed direction that observe the drainage of the contrast medium from the vascular system (3).

    Abstract: Computed tomography (CT) reconstruction includes reconstructing an axially extended reconstructed image from a measured cone beam x-ray projection data set (Pm), optionally having an off-center geometry. The reconstructing is performed for an extended volume (eFOV) comprising a reconstructable volume (rFOV) of the measured cone beam x ray data set that is extended along the axial direction. The projection data set may be weighted in the volume domain. Iterative reconstruction may be used, including initializing a constant volume and performing one or more iterations employing a first iterative update followed by one or more iterations employing a second, different iterative update. Alternatively, backprojection filtration (BPF) reconstruction may be used, including transforming the projection data set to a new geometry including finite differences between neighboring projection views and performing BPF using Hilbert filtering along a plurality of different directions and averaging the resultant reconstructed images to generate the final reconstructed image.
