CT Scan makes use of computer-processed combinations of many X-ray measurements taken from different angles to produce cross-sectional (tomographic) images (virtual “slices”) of specific areas of a scanned object, allowing the user to see inside the object without cutting.
- The term “computed tomography” (CT) is often used to refer to X-ray CT, because it is the most commonly known form.
- But, many other types of CT exist, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).
- X-ray tomography, a predecessor of CT, is one form of radiography, along with many other forms of tomographic and non-tomographic radiography.
- Computed tomography (CT) is a diagnostic imaging procedure that has become commonplace in first-opinion practices.
- This is continually undergoing technological improvement and each has its advantages for different applications.
