Abstract
A method of resampling of a sinogram from a fan beam SPECT includes the steps of angular resampling of the sinogram using frequency modulation, and thence transfers resampling of the sinogram using linear interpolation. This permits the use of parallel geometry algorithms in quantitative work without the expected degradation of resolution or the introduction of artifacts.
