82 Computed Tomography is a technique for estimating the interior of an
83 object from
84 measurement of radiation collected around the object. This
85 radiation can be either projected through or emitted from the
86 object. \ctsim\ simulates the process of projecting X-rays
87 through a phantom object. \ctsim\ can then reconstruct the
88 interior of the object from the projections collected around the
89 phantom object.
90
91 This manual begins with an introduction into the concepts of
92 \ctsim. The graphical, \helprefn{ctsim}{ctsim}, and
93 command-line, \helprefn{ctsimtext}{ctsimtext}, shells are then
94 presented. Finally, the web-based
95 \helprefn{interface}{webinterface} and
96 \helprefn{installation}{installation} are discussed.
97
98 I hope that you enjoy \ctsim!
