    Area of Science:

    • Medical imaging
    • Radiological physics

    Background:

    • Traditional tomosynthesis methods often have limitations in selecting imaging planes.
    • Digital imaging chains are increasingly integrated into classical tomographic apparatus.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a new backprojection method for tomosynthesis.
    • To enable flexible selection of tomosynthesis planes with six degrees of freedom.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing backprojection of projection images.
    • Employing classical tomographic apparatus (linear, circular, complex motion) with a digital imaging chain.
    • Acquiring projection images in a single sweep or simultaneously.
    • Applicability to C-arm imaging systems.

    Main Results:
