These are the lecture notes for FAU’s YouTube Lecture “Medical Engineering”. This is a full transcript of the lecture video & matching slides. The course is supported by a corresponding Open Access Book, and Open Source Slides (zenodo/github). We hope, you enjoy this as much as the videos. Of course, this transcript was created with deep learning techniques largely automatically and only minor manual modifications were performed. Try it yourself!

Welcome back to Medical Engineering. Today we want to continue our journey through the mathematics and algorithms of computed tomography. What we want to do today is we want to discover the different algorithms that are used to reconstruct the images. So I’m very much looking forward to looking into the reconstruction algorithms of computed tomography.
