Abstract
In an exemplary embodiment, a tomography device comprises a scanner that obtains image slices. The device additionally comprises at least one processor configured to: perform a Hermetic Transform on the image slices to obtain hermetically transformed data using; filter and perform an Inverse Hermetic Transform on the Hermetic Transform data to obtain filtered inverse Hermetic Transform data; and perform back projection and angle integration on the filtered inverse Hermetic Transform data.
