  We provide a new algorithm for the treatment of the noisy inversion of the
Radon transform using an appropriate thresholding technique adapted to a
well-chosen new localized basis. We establish minimax results and prove their
optimality. In particular, we prove that the procedures provided here are able
to attain minimax bounds for any $\mathbb {L}_p$ loss. It s important to notice
that most of the minimax bounds obtained here are new to our knowledge. It is
also important to emphasize the adaptation properties of our procedures with
respect to the regularity (sparsity) of the object to recover and to
inhomogeneous smoothness. We perform a numerical study that is of importance
since we especially have to discuss the cubature problems and propose an
averaging procedure that is mostly in the spirit of the cycle spinning
performed for periodic signals.
