Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) frequently suffers from data truncation, which introduces severe artifacts and limits the effective field of view (FOV). Existing deep learning methods for truncated cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) reconstruction suffer from serious limitations, including a strict reliance on supervised ground truth and a failure to account for continuous 3D spatial truncation variations. To address these challenges, we introduce a self-supervised 3D reconstruction framework based on neural scene representations. By directly mapping spatial coordinates to radiodensity under projection supervision, our approach inherently bypasses traditional filtering and backprojection operations, thereby fundamentally eliminating truncation-induced ring artifacts while enabling robust continuous 3D data extrapolation. However, coordinate networks are susceptible to an inherent spectral bias, which leads to a severe loss of clinically vital high-frequency textures. To resolve this bottleneck, we further incorporate a physics-based iterative refinement module into the neural scene representation architecture. Leveraging the artifact-free, extrapolated volume from the coordinate network as an optimal initialization, this module progressively re-extracts and injects high-frequency structural information from the original projections back into the volume. Extensive experiments on both simulated and real-world datasets demonstrate that our method successfully unifies the exceptional artifact suppression and extrapolation capabilities of neural networks with the high-fidelity detail preservation of iterative algorithms.

Computed Laminography (CL) is a key technology for the nondestructive testing of large plate-shaped objects. However, field-of-view (FOV) limitations inevitably lead to truncation of projected data, an ill-posed inverse problem that causes severe reconstruction artifacts. Existing deep learning methods typically rely on 2D architectures that lack rigorous data consistency constraints. Furthermore, they conventionally confine artifact removal strictly to the FOV, discarding potentially recoverable information outside it. To overcome these limitations, we first introduce a comprehensive CL FOV analysis, categorizing the space into data-complete, data-incomplete, and data-free regions. By extending our reconstruction target to encompass the data-incomplete region, we significantly expand the effective imaging range and enhance scanning efficiency. To achieve this, we propose a novel wavelet-optimized pseudo-3D accelerated diffusion model for CL truncation reconstruction (CL-DM). Our method utilizes a standard 2D diffusion model for slice aggregation, combined with a 3D model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR) method to ensure strict data consistency. To mitigate inter-slice discontinuities, we introduce wavelet regularization along the z-direction, paired with a translation-invariant (TI) mechanism and a low-frequency preservation strategy. Finally, we introduce a 3D fast sampling architecture, significantly accelerating inference speed. Extensive simulations and real-world experiments demonstrate that CL-DM is superior in effectively eliminating truncation artifacts and restoring high-fidelity, continuous 3D structures.

Rotational Scanning Computed Laminography (RCL) is widely utilized for the Non-Destructive Testing(NDT) of large planar components. However, to facilitate rapid inspection, continuous sparse-view scanning is often employed, where the angular integration effect during exposure induces rotational blur in the projection domain. Furthermore, the data incompleteness inherent in sparse sampling manifests as sparse artifacts in the reconstructed image domain. To address these cross-domain degradations, this paper proposes RCL-Mamba, a measurement-oriented dual-domain State Space Model (SSM)-based image restoration network. The framework adopts a cascaded joint processing strategy: it first corrects the rotational blur in the projection domain and subsequently suppresses the sparse artifacts in the image domain. Additionally, we design a Mamba-CNN dual-branch module to adaptively balance large-scale blur correction with local detail recovery. Evaluations on both simulated datasets and real-world Printed Circuit Board (PCB) scans demonstrate that RCL-Mamba outperforms existing baselines in blur removal, artifact suppression, and structural preservation. Line-profile-based structural measurement further verifies that the proposed method better preserves via/pad boundaries and slender trace profiles. Crucially, by reducing the required scanning views from 512 to 64, our method enhances inspection efficiency by approximately 8-fold without compromising reconstruction quality, offering a robust measurement-oriented restoration solution for high-throughput RCL inspection with improved structural measurement fidelity.
