1. A method for reducing aliasing artifacts in a computed tomography system, said method comprising:

  • scanning an object with a computed tomography system to acquire a projection data set of measured views;

    synthesizing additional views of the projection data set utilizing view interpolation; and

    filtering and backprojecting the projection data set utilizing a weighting function dependent upon parameters Rf and Rt, where radius Rf around an isocenter of the CT imaging system is selected in accordance with a low artifact criterion and Rt is a parameter defining a transition region outside of radius Rf around the isocenter of the CT imaging system.
