What is Tomosynthesis simulation?
Using software to simulate the process of Tomosynthesisto get reconstructed images.
Why need to do this simulation?
To get ideal geometry of Tomosythesis regardless of physical limitations.
Help to optimize the design of Tomosynthesis devices in real.

Preliminary Results
I just pick up the 35th slice in CT slices and SimullatedTomosynthesis reconstruction slices as an example. In the above pictures, Tomo with this geometry can give a good result to restore the slices in an object. More effect should be taken to change the geometry and its parameters to test which one can give a much better results.

Further work
Use multiple reconstruction algorithm.
Optimize the parameters of the simulated Tom geometry.
To gain a better reconstruction images.
