spiral CT

Spiral CT, or spiral computed tomography, is an advanced imaging technique that quickly captures detailed cross-sectional images of the body. During a scan, the patient lies on a table that moves through a rotating X-ray machine, creating a helical (spiral) path. This allows for rapid acquisition of multiple images, which computer software then combines to produce high-resolution 3D models. Spiral CT is commonly used in medical diagnostics to detect conditions such as tumors, internal injuries, and diseases, providing valuable information for effective treatment. Its speed and accuracy make it an essential tool in modern healthcare.
