1 Generalized Radon transforms
-
Sean Holman
Abstract
Generalized Radon transforms (GRTs) integrate a function over a family of possibly curved surfaces, and the need for their inversion arises in many applications including ultrasound, seismic imaging, synthetic aperture radar (SAR), thermoacoustic and photoacoustic tomography, emission tomography, Compton scattering tomography and Compton camera imaging among others. This paper introduces GRTs and their basic properties, and then surveys some of the applications mentioned, microlocal analysis of GRTs and explicit inversion formulae for GRTs.
