Dose in x-ray computed tomography
Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2014Radiation dose in x-ray computed tomography (CT) has become a topic of high interest due to the increasing numbers of CT examinations performed worldwide. This review aims to present an overview of current concepts for both scanner output metrics and for patient dosimetry and will comment on their strengths and weaknesses.

This chapter provides an overview of the use of x-ray and computed tomography (CT)-based imaging for brachytherapy. Treatment planning in brachytherapy requires accurate imaging of both the implanted materials and the surrounding anatomy. Ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which can provide excellent soft-tissue contrast for ...

X-ray computed tomography (CT) is remarkably helpful in the diagnosis of diseases of the upper abdominal organs, particularly the liver, biliary tract, and pancreas. However, CT examination has not been established as reliable pathognomonic method due to the rapid development of technique and equipment.

Matter is made of elementary particles consisting of a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons surrounded by electrons. The protons are hydrogen nuclei with a positive charge and their number determines the atomic number. The neutrons, which have no electric charge, form with the protons the nucleons which determine the atomic mass.

Abstract This chapter focuses on the features of x-ray and computed tomography (CT). X-ray uses a form of radiation to conduct basic body imaging and destroy tumor beds to facilitate cancer therapy. However, ionization is one of the downsides of x-rays as it could result in a carcinogen.

X-ray computed tomography of the cardiovascular system
Current Problems in Cardiology, 1991X-ray CT of the heart is an evolving field. The ultrafast CT scanner provides a practical method of applying the high spatial resolution, high density resolution, and tomographic capabilities of conventional CT scanning, permitting an evaluation of the cardiovascular system.

X-ray computed tomography (CT) is still a workhorse of neuroimaging despite the significant contributions to neurodiagnosis made by newer technologies such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and single proton emission CT (SPECT). Within only a few years of its introduction in 1972, by Geoffrey N.
