Multislice CT

Multislice CT

A computerized tomography scan, also called a CT scan, is a type of imaging that uses X-ray techniques to create detailed images of the body. It then uses a computer to create cross-sectional images, also called slices, of the bones, blood vessels and soft tissues inside the body. CT scan images show more detail than plain X-rays do.

A CT scan has many uses. It's used to diagnose disease or injury as well as to plan medical, surgical or radiation treatment. Learn more
