[comp.graphics] Computed Tomography

bemery@nmsu.edu (Bryan Emery) (12/05/90)

We are looking for software that does something called 'computed tomography'.
I am posting this for a friend who doesn't have net access and I don't know
much (if anything) about the subject.

What you apparently do is take x-ray or other type of scan data of an object 
and from that compute a three-dimensional image.  There is apparently a 
difference between this and medical imaging type software.

Any suggestions of sources of software - particularly public domain - would
be greatly appreciated.  PLEASE RESPOND BY E-MAIL...THANKS!  If there is 
an interest, I will post my findings.
