In Computed Tomography (CT), the "view number" specifies the total number of projection images (or "views") captured from different angles as the object is rotated. A higher view number generally results in a more detailed and higher-quality reconstructed image. However, this comes at the cost of increased scan and reconstruction times. The optimal number of views depends on factors like the object's size and the desired level of detail, with typical values ranging from several hundred to over a thousand.
