Well it is not really clear what you want. CT scanners used now for more
than 15 years in medical diagnosis work by generating 3D images from
projections. I assume you know this: the text books are in the library.
If you are looking for canned programs which will do CT-type reconstructions
from projections I am sure they are available from many places. We have
written programs for image processing which do reconstructions from projections
(amongst many other things). These are available from the DECUS library:
submission V00535 for VAX/VMS or Ultrix. The package is called MDPP.
