Added the Radon transform to the term "project" to clarify which kind of projections is referred to. This should solve one issue reported on the "talk" page.
Line 1:
In [[mathematics]], the '''projection-slice theorem''', '''central slice theorem''' or '''Fourier slice theorem''' in two dimensions states that the results of the following two calculations are equal:
* Take a two-dimensional function ''f''('''r'''), [[Projection (mathematics)|project]] (e.g. using the [[Radon transform]]) it onto a (one-dimensional) line, and do a [[Fourier transform]] of that projection.{{Dubious |Talk section Misleading Use of term "Projection"|reason=Inappropriately general definition of projection|date=August 2018}}
 
* Take that same function, but do a two-dimensional Fourier transform first, and then '''slice''' it through its origin, which is parallel to the projection line.
