Abstract
Approaches are described for processing half-scan or full-scan cone beam image data using one or more half-ramp filtering operations. In one embodiment, the half-ramp filtering operations allow extraction and use of missing frequency data so as to generate a reconstructed image that is relatively complete in terms of frequency data and which has suitable temporal resolution. In addition, in certain embodiments, the reconstructed image may have uniform frequency weighting.
