Zusammenfassung:Method and apparatus for increasing the Field Of View dimensions in a cone-beam computerized tomography acquisition, comprising the following steps: A. Selecting an acquisition protocol; B. Positioning a patient; C. Performing a first subacquisition step of a first anatomic area of at least two partially overlapping anatomic areas; D. Repositioning the apparatus for the next subacquisition step; E. Performing the at least one next subacquisition step of the at least further anatomic area; F. Generating the volumetric images relating to the subvolumes; G. Reconstructing a single global volumetric image in which the reconstruction occurs through techniques of image registration (stitching) and blending.
