Tomography is imaging by sections or sectioning. A device used in tomography is called a tomograph, while the image produced is a tomogram. The method is used in medicine, archaeology, biology, geology, materials science and other sciences. It is based on the mathematical procedure called tomographic reconstruction. There are many different types of tomography, as listed:

• Atom probe tomography (APT)
• Computed tomography (CT)
• Confocal laser scanning microscopy (LSCM)
• Cryo-electron tomography (Cryo-ET)
• Electrical capacitance tomography (ECT)
• Electrical impedance tomography (EIT)
• Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
• Magnetic induction tomography (MIT)
• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), formerly known as magnetic resonance tomography (MRT)
• Optical coherence tomography (OCT)
• Optical projection tomography (OPT)
• Positron emission tomography (PET)
• Quantum tomography
• Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)
• Seismic tomography
• X-ray Tomography
