Tomography is an imaging technique that works by reconstructing a scene from acquired data in the form of line integrals of the imaging domain. A fundamental underlying assumption in the reconstruction procedure is the precise alignment of the data values, i.e., the relationship between the data values and the paths of the lines of integration is accurately known. In many applications, e.g., electron and X-ray tomography, it is necessary to establish this relationship using software alignment techniques or image registration due to misalignment when rotating the physical specimen. Unfortunately, highly accurate software alignment is still a challenge to achieve in many cases, and improper alignment results in severe loss in the imaging resolution. In this paper, we develop a new approach that considers the alignment problem through a completely different lens, as a problem of recovering phase shifts in Fourier domain within the reconstruction algorithm. The recovery of these phase shifts serves as the data alignment, which is done by calculating discrepancies between the misaligned data and the current reconstruction. In the development of the approach, we investigate proper selection of parameters, and we show that it is fairly flexible and surprisingly accurate. Finally, the analysis of our approach provides insight into why projection matching alignment by cross correlation can be improved through low pass filtering, which we demonstrate. Our methods are validated in a wide range of examples and settings.
