Essential as a diagnostic tool, CT scans provide an easy and non-invasive path for doctors and their patients to identify unusual or difficult to assess issues within the body. Operation of this machinery, however, and the interpretation of the imaging results it produces, requires experience and intimate expertise of the physics and the technology involved. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten by some of the world’s leading experts, \u003ci\u003eComputed Tomography\u003c\/i\u003e’s fourth edition is a comprehensive description of the theoretical and technical system fundamentals of CT for a wide readership. The book explains the different levels of complexity of CT technology, from conventional single-slice acquisitions to volume acquisition with multi-slice and cone-beam spiral CT. It also provides detailed instructions on the relevant parameters for image quality, as well as performance features which are significant for clinical application. Moreover, it addresses the more interpersonal aspects of using this instrument, specifically use of contrast and appropriate patient dosages. This broad overview will, as a result, help readers use a CT system to an optimum level, depending on the varied diagnostic requirements. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eComputed Tomography \u003c\/i\u003efeatures extensive online supplementary material, including high-resolution CT figures from the book, clear case studies, and interactive exercises for image viewing and manipulation.
