Abstract
A reconstruction procedure for electrical conductance tomography developed by solving a linear Fredholm integral equation of the first kind is discussed. The integral equation is obtained from a linearized Poisson's equations. Properties of the integral equation are discussed, and problems associated with numerical solution of the equation are treated. The reconstruction requires only one matrix multiplication and therefore can be computed in a short time. Test results of the algorithm using both simulated and measured data are presented.Keywords
