Abstract
According to one embodiment, an X-ray computed tomography apparatus includes data acquisition circuitry and processing circuitry. The data acquisition circuitry is configured to acquire projection data of a first area and projection data of a second area, the first area being an area where the projection data is complete for one rotation, the second area being an area where the projection data is obtained for an angle smaller than the one rotation. The processing circuitry is configured to perform, for at least part of the first area, reconstruction processing using the projection data corresponding to a partial angle among the projection data and to perform, for the second area, reconstruction processing using the projection data of a smaller acquisition range that is smaller than one rotation.
