Methods: The authors cast the reconstruction as a compressed sensing problem based on 1 norm minimization constrained by statistically weighted least-squares of CBCT projection data. For accurate modeling, the noise characteristics of the CBCT projection data are used to determine the relative importance of each projection measurement. To solve the compressed sensing problem, the authors employ a method minimizing total-variation norm, satisfying a prespecified level of mea- surement consistency using a first-order method developed by Nesterov. Results: The method converges fast to the optimal solution without excessive memory requirement, thanks to the method
