title: [Application of algebraic reconstruction technique of multi-source tomosynthesis in dynamic reconstruction].
abstract: To reduce the motion artifacts, a new scanning configuration is proposed for tomosynthesis in dynamic reconstruction. In this new configuration, multiple x-ray sources are uniformly distributed on the circular scanning trajectory and moving simultaneously. Numerical experiments are performed using two dynamic digital phantoms and algebraic reconstruction technique. The reconstruction images of single-source tomosynthesis and multi-source tomosynthesis are compared and evaluated. The results show that multi-source tomosynthesis could reduce artifacts effectively, thus improving image quality. The advantages of multi-source tomosynthesis in dynamic reconstruction are important to cardiac imaging and respiratory imaging.
