Abstract

Computed tomography is the reconstruction of a cross sectional slice of, or a volume of, an object from a series of projections. Traditionally, this is an image of the X-ray attenuation coefficient, but there are now a plethora of techniques which reconstruct different types of information to form a three-dimensional (3D) image. These include exploiting phase contrast or diffraction to produce a 3D image of grain orientations and grain shapes, or crystalline phase, or elemental composition or other characteristic. Here the different techniques are introduced, their merits outlined and their capabilities demonstrated.
