Computed tomography (CT) is a technology that reconstructs two-dimensional images at specific levels of an object using mathematical methods and computer processing based on projection of physical data obtained around the object, without damaging its structure. A Three-dimensional image could be constructed based on a series of two-dimensional images.
With the development of CT technology and its obvious advantages in trait detection, it has been widely applied in fields such as medicine, industry, geophysics, engineering, agriculture, archaeology, and security check.
Computerized Tomography Theory and Applications (CTTA) is a professional academic journal founded in 1992. The types of papers published in CTTA include research articles, disciplinary progress, dataset papers, and reviews. Columns mainly include Theory and Methods, Geophysical CT, Industrial CT, Medical CT, Medical Imaging and Image Analysis, and Review, as well as issues and columns on research hotspots and cutting-edge topics.
Publishing scope of CTTA includes:
Theoretical research, analytical algorithms, and technological applications in CT and related fields
Innovative achievements in CT theory and frontier of CT technology at home and abroad
Application of CT technology in detecting the earth's internal structure
Application of CT technology in industry and engineering
Application of CT technology in security check
Medical imaging and image processing
Application of CT technology in medical field
Application of CT technology in archaeology, agriculture and other research domains
CTTA is one of the few journals specialized in publishing CT achievements both in Chinese and English languages. It is a platform of academic exchange for scientific and technical personnel engaged in CT theory and application research including professors and colleges students.
CTTA has been indexed by a series of domestic and foreign databases, including CSTPCD (Key Magazine of China Technology), CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, Chaoxing, EBSCO, DOAJ (Open Access), GeoRef, EuroPub, ICI Word of Journals, Ulrich's International Periodicals Directory (UPD), Research4Life (HINARI), J-Gate, JST, etc.
