1. An image reconstruction system, comprising: a gantry comprising a rotor, an x-ray tube, and image detector, wherein the rotor is movably attached to the gantry, and the x-ray tube and image detector are attached to the rotor; an image reconstructor for receiving scan data of a subject from the image detector and reconstructing the scan data into output images; an operator console comprising an input device and an output device; a processor in communication with the gantry, image reconstructor, and operator console; and wherein the system performs the steps of (a) acquiring scan data over a plurality of motion cycles of the subject; (b) generating representative motion data from the scan data over the plurality of motion cycles; (c) outputting a visualization to the output device of the representative motion data; (d) outputting image reconstruction recommendations to the output device based on the scan data.
