Abstract

A series expansion method in three-dimensional tomography is presented. While the function to be reconstructed is expanded in terms of spherical harmonics and orthogonal polynomials, the projection of the function is expanded in terms of Euler angles in the angular part and orthogonal polynomials in the radial part. The computer simulation of the reconstruction demonstrates the applicability of the method.
