A system oriented to develop an image processing system, which takes advantage of radiation flashes from a plasma focus, by optimizing the emission-detection-reconstruction procedure, is presented. A computer technique for 3D reconstructions was combined with radiographic images of objects X-rayed with a compact plasma focus. The technique is able to automatically determine the position of the rotation axis, reconstruct the 3D-attenuation map, and display inner cuts. The system was demonstrated in introspective tomographic imaging of a stainless steel BNC elbow.
