Medical Imaging

The central slice theorem states that the one-dimensional Fourier transform of a projection obtained at an angle θ is equal to the radial slice of the two-dimensional Fourier transform of the object taken at the same angle θ. It demonstrates the relationship between the projection space and Fourier space domains of an imaging system. The theorem allows reconstructing the object from its projections by using the separability of the two-dimensional Fourier transform.
