Abstract:
For pt.I see ibid., vol.9, p.366-75 (1990). Presents approaches for the realization of fast electro-optical reconstruction systems for fan-beam projection data. Two of the proposed systems were implemented. Requiring only 30 ms for the reconstruction of one image, the systems are two orders of magnitude faster than the special-purpose hardware in commercial CT reconstruction systems. The speed of the reconstruction systems would allow real-time interactive CT imaging.

Computed Tomography
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...
