    • The invention relates to a forward projection apparatus for performing a forward projection through an image (22), wherein at least one of a number of rays (20, 21) for performing the forward projection, a ray spacing between the rays and a kernel width of an interpolation kernel for calculating interpolated values located on the rays is varied depending on the ray width relative to an effective image element spacing between image elements (24) of the image. This allows reducing artifacts in simulated projection data and, thus, in an image, which is iteratively reconstructed by using the simulated projection data. For example, if the number of provided rays and/or the ray spacing between the provided rays is varied, aliasing artifacts can be reduced. Moreover, if the ray spacing between the provided rays and/or the kernel width of the interpolation kernel is varied, artifacts caused by varying effective kernel widths may be reduced.

    • The invention relates to an imaging apparatus for imaging an object of interest. An analytical reconstruction unit (12) analytically reconstructs an analytical image of the object from detection data, in particular, from projection data, and an iterative reconstruction unit (13) iteratively reconstructs an iterative image of the object from the detection data, wherein a combination unit (14) combines the analytical image and the iterative image for generating a combination image. An iterative image can comprises shading artifacts, which may be caused by preprocessing the detection data before performing the iterative reconstruction. An analytical image shows reduced shading artifacts, in particular, shows no shading artifacts at all. Thus, by combining the analytical image and the iterative image a combination image can be generated, in which the shading artifacts are reduced in comparison to an iterative image, thereby improving the quality of the reconstructed final image of the object of interest.

    • The invention relates to a computed tomography apparatus comprising a radiation source (2) and a detector (6) for generating detection values depending on a conical radiation beam (4). A weight providing unit (12) provides, for combinations of voxels of an image and detection values, weights for weighting the detection values, and a beam shaper shapes the conical radiation beam (4) such that for at least a part of the detection values the inverse of the variance of a respective detection value is positively correlated with an average of the weights corresponding to the combinations of the voxels, which correspond to the respective detection value, and the respective detection value. This shaping of the conical radiation beam improves the signal-to-noise ratio of the weighted detection values.
