The traditional Computed Tomography (CT) is based on the Radon Transform and its inversion. The Radon transform uses parallel beam geometry and its inversion is based on the Fourier slice theorem. In practice, it is very efficient to employ a back-projection algorithm in connection with the Fast Fourier Transform, and which can be interpreted as a 1-D filtering across the radial dimension of the 2-D Fourier plane of the transformed image. This approach can easily be adapted to windowing techniques in the frequency domain, giving the capability to reduce image noise. In this work we are investigating the capabilities of the so called Kaiser window (giving an optimal trade-off between the main lobe energy and the sidelobe suppression) to achieve a near optimal trade-off between the noise reduction and the image sharpness in the context of Radon inversion. Finally, we simulate our image reconstruction using MATLAB software and compare and estimate our results based on the normalized Least Square Error (LSE). We conclude that the Kaiser window can be used to achieve an optimal trade-off between noise reduction and sharpness in the image, and hence outperforms all the other classical window function in this regard.
