Abstract
In voludensitometry and in cases in which it is necessary to acquire only a small number of views, the artifact ratio resulting from reconstructions is reduced. There is acquired at least one view of the object to be reconstructed, the principal direction of irradiation of which is oriented substantially at right angles to a plane formed by or containing the other directions of irradiation corresponding to the other views.
