“…Several reconstruction methods have been explored for use in DBT, including filtered backprojection (FBP) (Lauritsch and Haerer, 1998;Stevens et al, 2001;Claus et al, 2006;Mertelmeier et al, 2006), algebraic reconstruction (ART) (Kaczmarz, 1937;Andersen et al, 1984;Kak and Slaney, 2001;Kempston et al, 2006;Diekmann et al, 2007;Zhang et al, 2007) and maximum likelihood (ML) techniques (Wu et al, 2003;Wu et al, 2008). Unfortunately, the DBT reconstruction problem is under-defined, meaning that there exists an infinite set of possible solutions that satisfy the projection data, also known as the null space.…”
