Computerised Tomography (CT) Scans
Conventional CT scan the scan is taken slice by slice and after each slice the scan stops and moves down to the next slice eg, from the top of the abdomen down to the pelvis. This requires patients to hold their breath to avoid movement artefact. Spiral/helical CT scan this is a continuous scan which is taken in a spiral fashion. It is a much quicker process and the scanned images are contiguous.
متن کاملComputerised tomography performance.
Generally, computerised tomography (CT) is an X-ray based non-destructive testing method that was developed for medical purposes in the seventies and introduced for industrial applications during the eighties. CT produces maps of the X-ray linear attenuation coefficient of an object’s interior; presented either as cross section images (two-dimensional CT) or as volume information (three-dimensi...

متن کاملPositron emission tomography and single photon emission computed tomography.
Neuroimaging techniques have had a dramatic impact on the evaluation and treatment of patients with epilepsy. In order to take full advantage of their potential, it is important to place them in clinical and electrophysiological context and to understand their technical limitations. Positron emission tomography with 18F-2-deoxyglucose and single photon emission computed tomography can provide v...
متن کاملEvaluation of single photon emission computerised tomography (SPECT) using Tc99m-tetrofosmin as a diagnostic modality for recurrent posterior fossa tumours.
BACKGROUND Brain Single Photon Emission Computerised Tomography (SPECT) has been established as a potentially useful tool for the assessment of recurrent brain tumours. Though brain SPECT is exquisitely sensitive in detecting viable tumour tissue in the supratentorial region, its efficacy has not been evaluated till date in case of infratentorial posterior fossa tumours. AIM OF THE STUDY To e...
