X-ray tomography
X-ray tomography is a technique that creates detailed 3D images of the inside of an object or body. It works by passing X-rays through the subject from multiple angles. These X-rays are then captured by detectors and processed by a computer to reconstruct cross-sectional images, or "slices," of the object. When combined, these slices form a comprehensive three-dimensional view, allowing us to see internal structures without cutting or damaging the object. It's widely used in medicine, materials science, and engineering for non-invasive examination and analysis.
