What is used in tomography?

Tomography is a technique used to create detailed images of cross-sections of an object, often employed in medical imaging. It typically utilizes various forms of radiation, such as X-rays, to capture images from multiple angles, which are then reconstructed into a 3D representation. Technologies such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are commonly used in this field. Additionally, algorithms and computer processing play a crucial role in reconstructing the images from the data collected.
