CT Scanning

CT Scanning

CT Scans are a series of x-rays images taken in fine slices of less than 1mm thick.

The slices are then collated for analysis.  By taking “slices” the technology is much more detailed than a single x-ray.   Each scan is specifically created for the condition and body part being investigated.  Several sets of images in different angles/directions are usually taken.
