TOMOSYNTHETIC IMAGE RECONSTRUCTION METHOD, AND DIAGNOSTIC DEVICE OPERATING ACCORDING TO THE METHOD

In a tomosynthetic image reconstruction method and diagnostic device operating with such a method, a tomosynthetic 3D x-ray image is reconstructed by a discrete filtered back projection from a number of individual digital projection data recorded from different project angles within a restricted angular range, in which at least one filtering is performed with a convolution kernel that, in the local area outside of its central value, corresponds to an exponential function.
