Unravelling the helix--a physician's guide to spiral computed tomography.
The introduction of spiral technology to computed tomography (CT) scanners in the late 1980s has revolutionised the field of CT. Spiral CT offers definite practical benefits over conventional scanners and has expanded the role of CT through the development of new scanning techniques. CT scanning now rivals magnetic resonance imaging in many areas of investigation, and for some situations is the...

متن کاملComparison of Spiral Computed Tomography and Cone-Beam Computed Tomography
Imaging is a highly dependent technology in the clinical assessment of a patient. With respect to the dental field, imaging has travelled a long way from the conventional radiographs to modern techniques like the computed tomography (CT) and the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). This article describes the evolution made in the CT in the field of dental imaging and attempts to compare the CT...
متن کاملSpiral computed tomography for pulmonary embolism.
Spiral computed tomography pulmonary angiography is increasingly used in the non-invasive investigation of patients with suspected pulmonary embolism. This review will focus on current techniques and indications with an explanation of the computed tomography signs of pulmonary embolism, possible pitfalls in interpretation and limitations of the technique.
متن کاملMultislice Spiral Computed Tomography in Cardiac Imaging
Objective: Multislice computed tomography is an emerging technology with the potential for non-invasive coronary investigation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and limitations of multislice computed tomography in the detection of coronary artery disease. Patients and Methods: Multislice computed tomography was performed in symptomatic patients with atypical chest pain and ...
