Abstract	Ultrasound Computer Tomography (USCT) records the interaction of ultrasonic waves with an imaged object from many different angles. The main advantage of such a system is simultaneous recording of reflection, absorption and speed of sound images, and higher image quality with fast data acquisition. Until now, it was not feasible to build a 3D USCT due to the high demands on the required number of transducers, high data rate, and time consuming post-processing. The aim of this first experimental setup for 3D USCT was to analyze the feasibility for breast cancer diagnosis of such a system built with today’s technology and draw conclusions for future setups. The results of this system are presented and discussed in regard of data acquisition, image quality, and duration of image reconstruction. The main conclusion is that 3D USCT is feasible with today’s technology, if a sparse aperture or long DAQ times can be accepted. A setup for a second-generation 3D USCT with the main aim to image volunteers and carry out a small preclinical study is proposed.
