A computed tomography imaging scanner (10) acquires helical cone beam
projection
data for a volume of interest (46) using at least two source trajectory
helices. A reconstruction processor (62) reconstructs the projection data
for each helix to generate a corresponding time skewed image representation. A
voxel time processor (66) computes an acquisition time for each voxel in
each time skewed image representation. A voxel interpolator (68) computes
an interpolated voxel value for each voxel based on values of the voxel in the
time skewed image representations and corresponding voxel acquisition times. In
an electronic embodiment, the computed tomography scanner (10) includes
an x-ray source (12) with an axially oriented cylindrical anode (92),
an electron source (961, 962) irradiating the
cylindrical anode (92) to produce an x-ray beam (120, 122, 124, 126),
and an electron beam deflector (98, 100) that deflects the electron beam
along the anode (92) to axially sweep the x-ray beam.
