The Radon Transform and Medical Imaging

Surveys the main mathematical ideas and techniques behind some well-established imaging modalities such as X-ray CT and emission tomography, as well as a variety of newly developing coupled-physics or hybrid techniques, including thermoacoustic tomography.

The Radon Transform and Medical Imaging:

• Emphasizes mathematical techniques and ideas arising across the spectrum of medical imaging modalities.
• Explains important concepts concerning inversion, stability, incomplete data effects, the role of interior information, and other issues critical to all medical imaging methods.
