Radon Transform in three dimensional image reconstruction from projections

This thesis presents an algorithm for image reconstruction from projections intended for use in a new class of volume imaging PET scanners. The algorithm is based on the inversion of the three dimensional Radon Transform as it applies to the truncated cylindrical detector geometry and is derived fr...
