THE ROLE OF FOURIER ANALYSIS IN TWO DIMENSIONAL TOMOGRAPHY

Optics 2026-04-22 v1 Numerical Analysis Numerical Analysis

Abstract

We highlight the important role of the Fourier transform in deriving inversion formulas for the integral transforms of tomographic imaging. We demonstrate this principle by deriving inversion formulas for the divergent beam transform and the V-line transform, the latter arising in contemporary models of single-scattering optical tomography.
