X-ray computed tomography [PDF]
Physics Education, 2001 X-ray computed tomography (CT) is a medical imaging technique that produces images of transaxial planes through the human body. When compared with a conventional radiograph, which is an image of many planes superimposed on each other, a CT image exhibits significantly improved contrast although this is at the expense of reduced spatial resolution. A CT
