Abstract
The authors developed and evaluated a technique of compressing raw projection data at computed tomography (CT). Raw projection data acquired at CT were compressed and decompressed and then used for image reconstruction. For comparison, original images were compressed by comparable ratios. Projection data files were more compressible than image files. Projection data compression is a promising, efficient method to reduce data file size and thus to facilitate retrospective image reconstruction.
