A CT scanning method compensates gantry motion blurring in projection measurement based on synchronized focal spot movement and detector data shifting. Tube power is increased by moving the focal on the target and reducing focal spot dwell duration. The CT scanning method is used on helical CT and cone beam with a rotating anode source and CBCT and TBCT with a linear array x-ray source.
