Abstract
A method for volumetric image reconstruction of data collected from a plurality of radiation beams emitted from axially offset positions includes receiving projection data from at least two radiation beams emitted from axially offset positions, defining a first boundary between a first region irradiated only by a first beam of the at least two radiation beams and a second region irradiated by both the first beam and a second beam of the at least two radiation beams, defining a weighting function as a function of the first boundary, and reconstructing a volumetric image from the data that is weighted with the weighting function. Each beam moves on a circular trajectory and radiates at a plurality of view angles over the circular trajectory.
