New Equipment - CT Scan Computerized Tomography

 
 

   

  •      Computed tomography (CT) scanning, also called computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanning, is a medical imaging procedure that uses x-rays to show cross-sectional images of the body. 
     A CT imaging system produces cross-sectional images or "slices" of areas of the body, like the slices in a loaf of bread. These cross-sectional images are used for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

 
              CT can help diagnose or rule out a disease or condition.  CT has become recognized as a valuable medical tool, for:
  •    - Diagnosis of disease, trauma, or abnormality
      •   - Planning, guiding, and monitoring therapy
  •   
 Computerized Tomography uses:
  1. Detecting the arteries in all parts of the body, such as ateries leading to the brain and the renal ateries to the kidneys.
  2. All bone sections of the body to identify any abnormalities.
  3. Detect abnormalities of the brain (CT Brain scan).
  4. Detect abnormalities of the abdomen (CT Abdomen scan).
  5. Detect discorders of the gastrointestinal tract (Virtual colonography).
