  2. CT scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CT_scan

    Sequential CT, also known as step-and-shoot CT, is a type of scanning method in which the CT table moves stepwise. The table increments to a particular location and then stops which is followed by the X-ray tube rotation and acquisition of a slice. The table then increments again, and another slice is taken.

  3. Photon-counting computed tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photon-counting_computed...

    Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) is a form of X-ray computed tomography (CT) in which X-rays are detected using a photon-counting detector (PCD) which registers the interactions of individual photons. By keeping track of the deposited energy in each interaction, the detector pixels of a PCD each record an approximate energy spectrum ...

  4. Operation of computed tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_of_computed...

    MeSH. D036542. Spiral computed tomography, or helical computed tomography, is a computed tomography (CT) technology in which the source and detector travel along a helical path relative to the object. Typical implementations involve moving the patient couch through the bore of the scanner whilst the gantry rotates.

  5. Cone beam computed tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone_beam_computed_tomography

    Cone Beam CT scanner. MeSH. D054894. Cone beam computed tomography (or CBCT, also referred to as C-arm CT, cone beam volume CT, flat panel CT or Digital Volume Tomography (DVT)) is a medical imaging technique consisting of X-ray computed tomography where the X-rays are divergent, forming a cone. [1]

  6. Full-body CT scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full-body_CT_scan

    Full-body CT scan. A full-body scan is a scan of the patient's entire body as part of the diagnosis or treatment of illnesses. If computed tomography (CAT) scan technology is used, it is known as a full-body CT scan, though many medical imaging technologies can perform full-body scans.

  7. History of computed tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_computed_tomography

    They do not have image viewing capabilities directly on the scanner. The portable CT scanner does not replace the fixed CT suite. An example of this type of machine is the Siemens Healthineers SOMATOM On.site. In 2008 Siemens introduced a new generation of scanner that was able to take an image in less than 1 second, fast enough to produce ...

  8. Industrial computed tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_computed_tomography

    Industrial computed tomography. Industrial computed tomography (CT) scanning is any computer-aided tomographic process, usually X-ray computed tomography, that uses irradiation to produce three-dimensional internal and external representations of a scanned object. Industrial CT scanning has been used in many areas of industry for internal ...

  9. Single-photon emission computed tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-photon_emission...

    Collimator used to collimate gamma rays (red arrows) in a gamma camera. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT, or less commonly, SPET) is a nuclear medicine tomographic imaging technique using gamma rays. [1] It is very similar to conventional nuclear medicine planar imaging using a gamma camera (that is, scintigraphy), [2] but is ...
