Gram filtering and sinogram interpolation for pixel-basis in parallel-beam X-ray CT reconstruction

27 May 2020  ·  Ziyu Shu, Alireza Entezari ·

The key aspect of parallel-beam X-ray CT is forward and back projection, but its computational burden continues to be an obstacle for applications. We propose a method to improve the performance of related algorithms by calculating the Gram filter exactly and interpolating the sinogram signal optimally. In addition, the detector blur effect can be included in our model efficiently. The improvements in speed and quality for back projection and iterative reconstruction are shown in our experiments on both analytical phantoms and real CT images.
