Iterative data refinement (IDR) is a general procedure for producing a sequence of estimates of the data that would be collected by a measuring device which is idealized to a certain extent, starting from the data that are collected by an actual measuring device. Following a discussion of the fundamentals of IDR, we present a number of previously published procedures which are special cases of it. We concentrate on examples from medical imaging. In particular, we discuss beam hardening correction in x-ray computerized tomography, attenuation correction in emission computerized tomography, and compensation for missing data in reconstruction from projections. We also show that a standard method of numerical mathematics (the parallel chord method) as well as a whole family of constrained iterative restoration algorithms are special cases of IDR. Thus IDR provides a common framework within which a number of originally different looking procedures are presented and discussed. We also present a result of theoretical nature concerning the initial behavior of IDR.
