Abstract
The exponential Radon transform on the plane arises in single photon emission computed tomography. It differs from the usual Radon transform by an exponential weight along the line of integration. The full description of the image of the transform in the space of compactly supported smooth functions is given. This description is connected with some curious identities for the sin function.
