In electron tomography, three-dimensional datasets are reconstructed with various reconstruction
algorithms. The accuracy and requirements on the projection geometry depend on kind of algorithms used for
reconstruction. In this report, we discuss the comparison between the filtered back-projection (FBP) technique,
most commonly used algorithm, and recently developed algorithm such as discrete algebraic reconstruction
technique (DART). A hexagonally packed cylindrical structure was used as a model for such comparison. DART
successfully reproduced the model even at the geometry where the model was poorly reconstructed by FBP. The
influence of the maximum tilt angle to the quality of reconstructed image was also investigated. Reasonable
quality of reconstruction has been obtained in a limited angular range by DART, while FBP generate only
qualitative images.
