Abstract
Tomographic images acquired by iterative reconstruction of low quality projection images, are enhanced by the steps of correcting at an iteration step the result of the previous iteration step by means of a back-projection of the result of a comparison of a projection image and the forward projection of the result of the previous iteration step whereby this result is enhanced by subjecting it to a trained neural network.
