In the following attention is giving to the cone-beam scanning geometry where reconstruction of a {3D} volume based on {2D} projections, using the classic Feldkamp-Davis-Kress (FDK) algorithm requires a large number of projections to be adequate. Since the patients are breathing freely during a scan, the number of projections with similar respiration may be to low. In the following we use an iterative reconstruction combined with the simultaneous estimation of the motion field, to improve reconstruction in these situations. Using a simulated dataset we demonstrate that this combination outperforms the {FDK} but due to ill possessedness of the motion estimation it is only on par with the sole iterative method." }
