Motion artifact is still a major issue in cardiac computed tomography because the current motion correction and electrocardiogram gating techniques have not fully addressed this problem. The image quality can be significantly improved by using information about the actual state of the heart and an exact reconstruction algorithm. We propose to extend a cardiac computed tomographic technique, using the knowledge of the volume and the relation between the state and the phase of the heart, to a saddle curve trajectory. This will optimize the image quality by reducing the artifacts resulting from approximate reconstruction and solve the long-object problem. Necessary background is provided, and the effectiveness of the algorithms is demonstrated in numerical simulations with the dynamic thorax phantom.
