title: Computerized tomography and nuclear magnetic resonance.
abstract: In 1917 Radon gave a simple formula for reconstructing a function (f(x,y,z) from its integrals over all planes in three-dimensions. We give a simple algorithm for numerical quadrature of his formula and suggest its application to imaging the nuclear magnetic resonance spin density of an object.
