Critics Review

From the reviews of the first edition.

”… the author is a giant in the field. One expects an exciting book and one is not disappointed.”S. Webb, Physics in Medicine and Biology, v. 26. p. 721, 1981.

”… the book is an excellent introduction to the subject and is well written, thoughtfully organized, and a pleasure to read.”M.W. Vannier, The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, v. 23, p. 369, 1982.

“On the one hand the book is well suited for a course on computerized tomography at the graduate level, on the other hand I found it a well balanced review on the subject for somebody outside the field.”W.N Brouw, Space Science Reviews, v.32. p. 467, 1982.

“This book will be valuable to the engineer, the physicist, the mathematician, and the physician (with a sufficient mathematical background) interested in the field of CT.”M.M. Ter-Pogossian, Medical Physics, v. 11, p. 90, 1984.
