An inverse tachyon pulse is a stream of tachyons capable of scanning beyond the subspace barrier.
In 2370, Captain Picard's consciousness began to shift between three different alternate timelines, in different time periods, due to the influence of Q. In all three time periods he ordered an inverse tachyon pulse initiated in the Devron system, in order to examine the interior of an anti-time eruption which had appeared in all of the time periods. The pulse was emitted from the vessel's main navigational deflector. Approximately fourteen hours were required to make the necessary modifications and scan the entire Devron system aboard the USS Pasteur.
Although the tachyon pulses proved successful in scanning the interior of the eruption, the use of a tomographic imaging scanner was required to fully penetrate it. Upon using the scanner, it was discovered that all three pulses were converging at the same point in space, causing a breakdown of the subspace barrier between time and anti-time, and causing the eruption. The timelines in which these events took place were later negated when the eruption was sealed into subspace. (TNG: "All Good Things...").

An anti-tachyon pulse was a discharge of anti-tachyons that could be produced by a starship's main deflector.
In 2378, Captain Kathryn Janeway ordered the use of an anti-tachyon pulse to seal a temporal rift, which had been generated by Janeway's counterpart from the year 2404. (VOY: "Endgame").
Tomographic imaging scanner
A tomographic imaging scanner was a device capable of multiphasic resolution invented by the Daystrom Institute for use in areas where high levels of interference made the use of traditional scanning devices impossible. As of 2364 the device was still in development, but by 2370 it had been perfected and was being carried aboard the USS Enterprise.
In an alternate timeline, a tomographic imaging scanner was used to scan the interior of an anti-time eruption discovered in the Devron system. The scan revealed that the eruption was being caused by the convergence of three inverse tachyon pulses initiated in three different time periods. The timeline in which these events took place was later negated when Captain Picard prevented the formation of the eruption from occurring. (TNG: "All Good Things...")
Tomographic imaging is, in fact, already in significant use in industry and medicine. It is designed to display distinct sections or slices of its subject. How the scanner relates to the field in use today was not revealed in the episode.
According to the pronunciation guide for "All Good Things...", tomographic was pronounced as "toe-moe-GRAF-ik".
