Abstract

A data acquisition system (232) for use in a CT scanner (200) comprises an analog-to-digital converter (234) means for generating digital signals in response to analog signals representative of projection data taken at a relatively constant sampling rate; and an interpolation filter (238) for generating projection data for a plurality of predetermined projection angles as a function of the digital signals irrespective of the sampling rate.
