Abstract

In this paper an analytical iterative approach to the problem of image reconstruction from parallel projections is presented. The reconstruction process is performed using Expectation Minimization algorithm. Experimental results show that the appropriately designed reconstruction procedure is able to reconstruct an image with better quality than obtained using the traditional convolution/ back-projection algorithm.
