X-ray inspection systems are critical in medical, non-destructive testing, and security applications, with systems typically measuring attenuation along straight-line paths connecting sources and detectors. Computed tomography (CT) systems can provide higher-quality images than single- or dual-view systems, but the need to measure many projections leads to greater system cost and complexity. Typically, off-angle Compton scattered photons are treated as noise during tomographic inversion. We seek to maximize the image quality of limited-view systems by combining attenuation data with measurements of Compton-scattered photons, exploiting the fact that the broken-ray paths followed by scattered photons provide additional geometric sampling of the scene. We describe a single-scatter forward model for Compton-scatter data measured with energy-resolving detectors, and demonstrate a reconstruction algorithm for density that combines both attenuation and scatter measurements. The experimental results suggest that including Compton-scattered data in the reconstruction process can improve image quality for density reconstruction using limited-view systems.
