Patent ID: 8737701

Claim:
A method for reconstructing image data of a moving examination object from measured data, the measured data being acquired during a rotating movement of a radiation source of a computed tomography system around the examination object, the method comprising: determining, by a computer, first image data from the measured data; determining movement information by forming a difference between images from the determined first image data; determining at least, a first time instant, using at least a first continuous function or a second continuous function, of relatively little movement of a first site within the examination object from the determined movement information, and a second time instant, using one of the at least a first continuous function and a second continuous function used in determining the first time instant, of relatively little movement of a second site within the examination object from the determined movement information; and reconstructing second image data, using the measured data corresponding to the determined at least first and second time instants, wherein each of the first and second situ corresponds to a specific axial section through the examination object.
