An Overview of the Process of CT

Abstract

In this chapter we describe, in the most general terms, the whole process of x-ray computerized tomography. Our intention is to give a brief overview. Hence, some terms with which the reader may not be familiar are introduced without proper definition. We ask the reader's indulgence; such terms will be carefully defined in subsequent chapters.
