Summary
This paper describes an analytical iterative approach to the problem of image reconstruction from parallel projections using Expectation Minimization algorithm. The experiments with noisy measurements have shown that EM algorithm can deblur the reconstructed image. The achieved results confirm that designed reconstruction procedure is able to reconstruct an image with better quality than image obtained using the traditional back-projection algorithm.
