Tomography

Tomography is an imaging technique that allows us to see inside objects or bodies by creating detailed cross-sectional images, like slices of bread. It uses various methods, such as X-rays or magnetic fields, to capture data from multiple angles. These images are then combined to generate a three-dimensional view of the internal structure. Commonly used in medicine, such as CT (computed tomography) scans, it helps doctors diagnose conditions by providing clear visuals of organs and tissues. Beyond medicine, tomography is also used in fields like geology and materials science to study the composition of materials or the Earth's structure.
