Basic X-ray physics: X-ray/matter interaction

As X-rays traverse through an object, it might get attenuated. This video is part of the "Computed Tomography and the ASTRA Toolbox" training course, developed at the Vision Lab at the University of Antwerp, Belgium (http://visielab.uantwerpen.be). The ASTRA Toolbox is an open source tool for efficient and flexible tomographic reconstruction algorithms. It is being developed at the University of Antwerp, Belgium and at the Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI), Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
