Saturation in at least one saturated ray is in a method including identifying a saturated ray corresponding to a first ray of a radiation source received at a radiation detector after passing through a reference point during a current view of the radiation detector, identifying at least one non-saturated ray corresponding to a second ray of the radiation source received at the radiation detector, and responsive to the identifying, adjusting a value for the saturated ray based on a value of the at least one non-saturated ray. The non-saturated ray can be a ray from an adjacent view of a current rotation, an adjacent view of a previous or subsequent rotation, or a conjugate ray. Methods of selecting a gain level to avoid saturation are also disclosed.
