Abstract

Tomography system is a method that being used to reconstruct a cross sectional image in vessel or pipeline. This method is widely used in medical and industrial fields. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of tomography system based on its basics construction, types of sensors, its applications in today’s industry, and image reconstruction. This paper review consists of literature citations which related with tomography system.
