What is image reconstruction?
Image reconstruction is a mathematical technique implemented in computers within scanners to reconstruct tomographic or volumetric images from acquired projectional data of a patient. For example, filtered back projection (FBP) and iterative reconstruction (IR) methods are commonly used to create tomographic images in CT.
