Abstract

An imaging apparatus has a capture device for capturing 1D or 2D image data. A position and/or orientation for a moving section of an examination object is captured, for example using a measuring device, for a plurality of capture times for the image data. A computation device reconstructs 3D volume data from the image data based on projection parameters and based on the position and/or orientation of the moving section of the examination object.
