Principle

This experiment explains the fundamental principles of image formation with a CT algorithm. A test object is used to create an attenuation tomogram and a time-of-flight tomogram followed by a discussion of the respective differences.

Benefits


Ideal system for education: affordable compared to industrial system to demonstrate ultrasound-CT in a very comprehensible way

With the same system mechanical scanning of an object can be performed, e.g. to create a B-scan image


Tasks


Creation of several attenuation and time-of-flight tomograms

Variation of the device parameters

Discussion of the differences
