Fundamentals of Computerized Tomography Image Reconstruction from Projections / by Gabor T. Herman.

Computerized tomography, the process of obtaining the density distribution within a human body from multiple x-ray projections, has revolutionized diagnostic radiology over the past three decades. Fundamentally the same computational process has been used for reconstruction from projections in many...
