[An investigation into the effect of xerographic property on tomograms (author's transl)]
Abstract:
The properties of xerography as they affect tomography have been studied on phantoms. It was shown that, apart from better rendering of soft tissues, there is no fundamental difference. Section thickness and unwanted shadows are not influenced either way for optimal exposures. Significant improvement in diagnostic information can only be expected, if at all, under very special circumstances.

Electron Microscope Tomography and Single-particle Reconstruction
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) can be used to determine the 3D structure of biological samples with the help of techniques such as electron microscope tomography and single-particle reconstruction. While single-particle reconstruction can examine macromolecules and macromolecular complexes in vitro conditions only, tomography permits the study of cell components or small cells in vivo.

Computed Tomography
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
