Image for Multi-detector Computed Tomography (MDCT)

Multi-detector Computed Tomography (MDCT)

Multi-detector Computed Tomography (MDCT) is a medical imaging technique that uses multiple rows of detectors to capture detailed cross-sectional images of the body. It quickly takes multiple slices of images, which can be combined to create 3D representations of organs and tissues. This technology allows for faster scans and better clarity, helping doctors detect conditions like tumors, injuries, and diseases. MDCT is widely used because it provides essential diagnostic information while minimizing patient exposure to radiation compared to traditional CT scans. It is a crucial tool in modern healthcare for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
