Abstract
This thesis investigates the limited angle tomography problem where axial reconstructions are produced from few measured projection views covering a 100° angular range. Conventional full angle tomography requires at least a 180° range of projection views of the patient at a fine angular spacing. Inference techniques presented in the literature, such as Bayesian methods, perform inadequately on the information-starved problem of interest.
