I would strongly recommend not doing this. It introduces staircases in the image signal that are not present in the original continuous signal. See details in this discussion:

This reconstruction is lossless if sample-rate criterion is satisfied (see more details [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist%E2%80%93Shannon_sampling_theorem)). The criterion is not always satisfied - that’s when you see staircase artifacts in the reconstructed image (in both slice views, volume rendering, and reconstructed surfaces): Interpolation is still about the best thing you can do, and definitely provides much more faithful reconstruction …
