Abstract :
The technique of computerized photon tomography has been applied in the nondestructive evaluation of a number of inanimate objects. 1,2,3 Hardware and software capabilities for industrial tomographic analysis, particularly of high-density objects, have been developed. Spatial resolution is on the order of 1-2mm for density variations of a few percent.
