Figure 8. Row of data encountered along a ray of projection. The data consist of attenuation information calculated in Hounsfield units. The value of the displayed two-dimensional pixel is determined by the amount of data included in the calculation (slab thickness) and the processing algorithm (maximum, minimum, or average intensity projection [AIP] or ray sum).
