Coordinate Rotation and the Radon Transform
A slecture by ECE student Sahil Sanghani
Partly based on the ECE 637 material of Professor Bouman.
Introduction
A Radon Transform is an integral that allows the calculation of the projections of an object as it is scanned. Since the scanner rotates as it takes data, the projections will have to be calculated at various angles. Thus coordinate rotation is an essential topic for tomographic reconstruction because it allows the calculation of the Radon Transform.
Coordinate Rotation
The counterclockwise rotation matrix is given by
$ \mathbf{A_{\theta}}=\begin{bmatrix} \cos(\theta) & -\sin(\theta) \\ \sin(\theta) & \cos(\theta) \end{bmatrix} $
