Simultaneous algebraic reconstruction technique

Simultaneous algebraic reconstruction technique (SART) is a computerized tomography (CT) imaging algorithm useful in cases when the projection data is limited; it was proposed by Anders Andersen and Avinash Kak in 1984.

As a measure of its popularity, researchers have proposed various extensions to SART: OS-SART, FA-SART, VW-OS-SART,[2] SARTF, etc.

Researchers have also studied how SART can best be implemented on different parallel processing architectures.

[6] An application of SART to ionosphere was presented by Hobiger et al.[7] Their method does not use matrix algebra and therefore it can be implemented in a low-level programming language.

A discrete version of SART called DART was developed by Batenburg and Sijbers.
