  • Abstract
    We have developed a prototype high energy gamma-ray CT system for nondestructive inspection of heavy industrial products using laser-Compton photon beam, which was generated with an 800 MeV electron storage ring, TERAS, of AIST-Tsukuba and with an intense laser light source. A description of the prototype system and experimental results of CT imaging are presented.
