Tomography

'Tomography' is imaging by sections or sectioning. A device used in tomography is called a tomograph, while the image produced is a tomogram. The method is used in medicine, archaeology, biology, geology, materials science and other sciences. It is based on the mathematical procedure called tomographic reconstruction. There are many different types of tomography, as listed:


 * Atom probe tomography (APT)
 * Computed tomography (CT)
 * Cryo-electron tomography (Cryo-ET)
 * Electrical impedance tomography (EIT)
 * Magnetic resonance tomography (MRT)
 * Optical coherence tomography (OCT)
 * Positron emission tomography (PET)
 * Quantum tomography
 * Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)
 * Seismic tomography
 * X-ray tomography
