Abstract

The paper describes our 3D X-ray CT algorithm “RADON” using attenuation measurements acquired with a bidimensional detector. Our inversion diagram uses the first derivative of the Radon transform synthesis then its inversion. The potentiality of that new method, particularly for the large aperture, prompted us to develop an optimized software offering convenience and high performances on a modem scientific computer. After a brief recall of the basic principle of X-ray imaging processing, we will introduce the theoretical developments resulting in the present inversion diagram. A general algorithm structure will be proposed afterwards. As a conclusion we will present the performances and the results obtained with ceramic rotors examination.
