A method for including redundant data in fan‐beam computed tomography (CT) is presented. It is a natural extension of the Parker [Med. Phys. 9 , 254–257 (1982)] short‐scan approach applied to divergent fan‐beam (or cone‐beam) data when the data set covers between the minimally complete set of 180° plus fan angle and 360°. A virtual fan angle is introduced whose value is the difference between the angular range of the data collected and 180°. Parker‐weights are then applied as if the field‐of‐view is spanned by the virtual fan angle.
