Abstract: A relative dielectric constant of a mixed substance
consisting of powders and a liquid medium is calculated, and
then the relative dielectric constant of the mixed substance
or a relative dielectric constant of the liquid medium is
calculated as a relative dielectric constant of the powders when
the relative dielectric constant of the mixed substance 18
becomes equal to a relative dielectric constant of the liquid
medium. Therefore, the relative dielectric constant of the
powders can be measured with high precision even in a
high-frequency band in excess of several GHz.

Abstract: A conebeam computed tomography scanner (10) acquires conebeam projection data along a generally helical source trajectory around an examination region (14). An exact reconstruction processor (40) includes a convolution processor (42) and an aperture weighted backprojection processor (46, 66). The convolution processor (42) performs at least one convolution of the acquired projection data.
