Abstract
This overview is the first presentation in a Session devoted to 3-D display of internal structures. In the following presentations different modalities for 3-D display of internal structures are discussed. For each modality a leading worker in the field gives an oveview of that modality with an emphasis of his own practical work. In just about all cases to be discussed, the data which we input to the 3-D display process have been acquired and processed by some sort of computerized tomography device. This overview describes the data acquisition and processing by such devices. While the medical application is used for illustration, emphasis is placed on the fact that nearly identical pro-cedures are applicable in many other fields, including non-destructive testing.
