Abstract:
1. An X-ray computed tomography apparatus comprising: an X-ray source which irradiates an object with X-rays spreading in a slice direction; an X-ray detector comprising a plurality of X-ray detection elements which are juxtaposed over a predetermined slice width in the slice direction and detect X-rays transmitted through the object to output acquired data; a reconstruction unit which comprises a back-projection unit which obtains back-projection data relating to each of a plurality of pixels as defined in an imaging area by performing back projection of the acquired data by the X-ray detector and an interpolation unit which interpolates the acquired data, and performs reconstruction processing for an image; and a setting unit which offsets, in the reconstruction processing, the imaging area including a plurality of a pixels in the slice direction.
