Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. A medical imaging system, comprising:
a short-scan reconstructor configured to reconstruct redundancy weighted cone beam projection data to generate initial short scan cone beam volumetric image data, wherein the initial short scan cone beam volumetric image data includes the cone beam artifact;
a combiner configured to combine the initial short scan cone beam volumetric image data and correction/cone beam artifact volumetric image data to generate cone beam artifact corrected short scan cone beam volumetric image data;
a redundancy weight processor configured to determine a redundancy weight and apply the redundancy weight to the cone beam projection data to generate the redundancy weighted cone beam projection data; and
a spatially variant 3-D filter configured to filter the cone beam volumetric image data based on the redundancy weight to generate the correction/cone beam artifact volumetric image data.
