The Shepp-Logan phantom is often used in 2-D and 3-D reconstruction literature to present the quality of reconstruction algorithms. In Matlab the 2-D version of the phantom can be used as follows for creating a 200 x 200 image:

  1. I = phantom(200);
  2. figure, imshow(I,[]);

results into the following image:
