Although emission spectral tomography(EST)combines emission spectral measurement with optical com- puted tomography(OCT),it is difficult to gain transient emission data from a large number of views, therefore,high precision OCT algorithms with few views ought to be studied for EST application.To improve the reconstruction precision in the case of few views,a new computed tomography reconstruction algorithm based on multipurpose optimal criterion and simulated annealing theory(multi-criterion simu- lated annealing reconstruction technique,MCSART)is proposed.This algorithm can suffice criterion of least squares,criterion of most uniformity,and criterion of most smoothness synchronously.We can get global optimal solution by MCSART algorithm with simulated annealing theory.The simulating experi- ment result shows that this algorithm is superior to the traditional algorithms under various noises.
