  THz frequency is a special electromagnetic wave which is categorized between a radio wave and a light wave. It can pass through the various materials like a radio wave and can be transported with optical components like a light wave. Thus, it's suitable for imaging application of materials. At Waseda University, it's possible to generate a high-quality electron beam using Cs-Te photocathode RF-Gun and the electron beam is applied to several application researches. As an application of this electron beam, we generate a coherent Cherenkov radiation, and succeed in observing a high power THz light. The successful results of high power THz radiation encourage us to perform the THz imaging with transmission and reflection imaging using some materials, cross-section imaging using a simple material. On studying the THz imaging, it is necessary to clarify the spatial resolution. So, we tried to evaluate the spatial resolution in our device. Furthermore, our target is to get the three-dimensional THz images. We will introduce the CT technique in order to obtain the clear cross-section image. In this conference, we report the recent results of the THz imaging and future prospective.
