Abstract

Spatial resolution improvement techniques for three dimensional industrial computed tomography (3D-ICT) have been researched in this paper. A cone-beam 3D-ICT scan mode was proposed to improve the spatial resolution by the quarter-detector offset. Its filter back-projection reconstruction algorithm based on the parallel beam rebin principle was deduced. Firstly this method acquires the two dimensional projection sequence by offsetting the detector center a quarter of the detector channel width with respect to the iso-center. Secondly it rebins these projects into parallel data. Finally it doubles the sampling frequency of parallel data with the symmetry between two projection view angles with an angle interval 180°. Computer simulation results prove the correction and the validity of this algorithm. Using this algorithm, the spatial resolution can be improved approximate 100% along the horizontal reconstruction direction.
