Sparse angle X-ray captive test (CT) imaging method

A sparse angle X-ray captive test (CT) imaging method comprises the following steps: (1) system parameters, all angle projection data scanned previously and sparse angle projection data scanned previously in different periods are obtained; (2) image reconstruction is respectively performed to the all angle projection data scanned previously and the sparse angle projection data scanned previously which are obtained in step (1) so that a previously scanned CT image and a currently reconstructed CT image are obtained; (3) weighting even filtering processing is performed to the previously scanned CT image and the currently reconstructed CT image which are obtained in the step (2) so that a prior image is obtained; (4) a sparse angle CT image reconstruction model is constructed by the prior image obtained in the step (3); and (5) a final reconstructed image is obtained through optimization solution. According to the sparse angle X-ray CT imaging method, motion artifact caused by mismatching of imaging positions between the previously scanned CT image and the currently reconstructed CT image is removed so that high quality reconstruction of a low dose CT image is achieved.
