Bracewell [6] in his paper covered mathematical formulation of projections and reconstructions, introducing various significant relationships. Despite its potential, it had little impact in its field. However, in 1963, in the field of medicine [7] interest in tomographic reconstruction was shown. An X-ray computerized tomography (CT) scanner was developed, commonly known as the computerized axial tomography (CAT) scan. In 1979, for the above-mentioned application, a joint Nobel Prize was given to Cormack and Hounsfield. Success of the CAT scan lead to other medical analysis techniques like positron emission computed tomography (PET), ultrasound CT, and zeugmatography (reconstruction from nuclear magnetic resonance [NMR] imaging).
