Two-radiograph reconstruction using six geometrical solution sets and least-squares method.
When two radiographic projections are available for reconstruction, it was found that six different combinations of equations could be used to obtain the geometrical solutions for the position of any point. No errors in the image coordinates read from the radiographs resulted in identical solutions for the six equations. Inaccuracies or errors present in the image coordinates generated differences among the six solutions. In this case, a least-squares method could be used to determine the optimum position. The utility of such a least-squares optimizing approach is presented in the context of a clinical example.
