Currently, besides ultrasonic there are a number of tomography techniques available for studying complex multiphase phenomena. These include electrical tomography (Impedance, Capacitance and Resistance), optical, positron emission tomography (PET), X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasonic and others. Each of these techniques has its advantages , disadvantages and limitations but each of it has common purpose to analyze measured data. The best way is by reconstructing images from acquired data. Process tomography consists of tomographic imaging of systems, such as process pipes in industry. In tomography the cross sectional image distribution of so me physical quantity in the object is determined. There is a widespread need to get tomographic information about process. This information can be used, for example, in the design and control of processes. Tomography involves taking measurements around the periphery of an object such as process vessel to determine what is going on inside.
