Physical and mathematical procedures of x-ray CT and MRI have been extensively studied during the past three decades. The statistical methods of image reconstruction, processing and analysis of x-ray CT and MRI have been widely used in the various fields. However, the lack of a complete description and a rigorous proof of their statistical properties become a common concern. This study attempts to fill this gap and discusses a framework for studying the statistical aspects of x-ray CT and MRI.
