Computed tomography difference radiography

  • What is radiology and computed tomography?

    The term “computed tomography,” or CT, refers to a computerized x-ray imaging procedure in which a narrow beam of x-rays is aimed at a patient and quickly rotated around the body, producing signals that are processed by the machine's computer to generate cross-sectional images, or “slices.”.

  • What is the advantage of CT scan over conventional radiography?

    A major advantage of CT is its ability to image bone, soft tissue, and blood vessels all at the same time.
    Unlike conventional x-rays, CT scanning provides very detailed images of many types of tissue as well as the lungs, bones, and blood vessels..

  • CT scans are more detailed than standard X-rays.
    In standard X-rays, a beam of energy is aimed at the body part being studied.
    A plate behind the body part captures the variations of the energy beam after it passes through skin, bone, muscle and other tissue.
