Description
Summary:In this paper we investigate the possibility of constructing computerized tomograms using data collected from a fluoroscopic system. It is shown that through proper handling of these data, useful images can be obtained. The system offers the advantages of eliminating the need for a highly stabilized, linear translating mechanism, and also of requiring relatively low patient dosage. In addition, the data gathering can be done in essentially real time.
