Abstract
How can a computer scientist aid saving lives? Computerised Tomographic Imaging (CTI) is an imaging technique used widely in healthcare for diagnosis and planning treatments. I will give a brief overview of what CTI is and how it works. A discussion on alternative methods follows. I will then present the Fourier Slice Theorem and the Filtered Backprojection Algorithm, which are fundamental to CTI technology. Some reconstruction algorithms will also be described.
