Abstract

In order to reconstruct the structure of a body by way of iterative algorithms, the first iterations are carried out with lower resolution in order to limit the number of calculations. The image can then be reconstructed when the calculation time is reduced to one-third or even one-quarter. The image thus reconstructed is of better quality than images reconstructed using only a single resolution.
