    "abstract": "This review covers latest developments in continuous-variable quantum-state\ntomography of optical fields and photons, placing a special accent on its\npractical aspects and applications in quantum information technology. Optical\nhomodyne tomography is reviewed as a method of reconstructing the state of\nlight in a given optical mode. A range of relevant practical topics are\ndiscussed, such as state-reconstruction algorithms (with emphasis on the\nmaximum-likelihood technique), the technology of time-domain homodyne\ndetection, mode matching issues, and engineering of complex quantum states of\nlight. The paper also surveys quantum-state tomography for the transverse\nspatial state (spatial mode) of the field in the special case of fields\ncontaining precisely one photon.",
