Abstract
An improved apparatus and method for producing a sectional view of a body in a short time in which rays such as X-rays or gamma rays are directed in a fan shaped beam through a cross section plane of the body element in different directions and the absorption of the radiation detected by a receiver scintillator whose photons release electrons which are subsequently accelerated and then converted into electrical signals.
