Reconstruction techniques have been developed to obtain 2D images of plasmas from the electron cyclotron emission (ECE) and soft x-ray emission signals by taking advantage of the large toroidal rotation rate on the tokamak fusion test reactor (TFTR). From the numerical examination using the sawtooth crash model, we found that the rotational tomography is effective if the crash time is longer than the two rotation periods.
