Image for Multislice computed tomography

Multislice computed tomography

Multislice computed tomography (CT) is a medical imaging technique that captures detailed cross-sectional images of the body. This method uses multiple X-ray beams simultaneously, allowing for rapid acquisition of numerous slices or images in a single rotation. As a result, it provides high-resolution images of internal organs and structures, making it easier for doctors to diagnose conditions. The speed of multislice CT can also reduce movement blur caused by patient breathing, enhancing image quality. It's commonly used for examining the brain, chest, abdomen, and blood vessels.
