Grayscale is used in CT scans (Computed Tomography) so the images sent to a computer for analysis contain lighter and darker "spots" of grey. This allows the computer to determine what parts of the body in that scan are blocking the most radiation, and can use it to create a 3D image of the area scanned, such as the skull or diaphragm.

What is a scanning probe microscope used for?
A scanning probe microscope is used for observing, studying and measuring surfaces on a fine scale to the level of atoms and molecules. One can find more information about these on Wikipedia.
Explain how a proportion is used to convert measurements on a scale drawing or map to actual lengths or distances?
Hi
Is uv rays used in scanning?
no
Explain how electron microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopes have contributed to the understanding of atoms?
An electron microscope uses an electron beam to illuminate a specimen and produce a magnified image. It uses an electrostatic and electomagnetic lens to magnify images. It is used to investigate the ultrastructure of bilological and inorganic specimens. A scanning tuneling microscope is used to image the surface at an atomic level. It is based on the concept of quantum tuneling. It is used in industrial and fundamental research to get atomic scale images of metal surfaces. It provides a three dimensiional profile of the surface.
What is a scanner and what is it used for?
its a machine that scans things... and it's used for scanning
Why is an odd number of line used for scanning?
An odd number of lines are used in interlaced scanning because, in each field of the TV, the scanning displaces the field by a half of the area. If there were an even number of lines, it would flicker noticably.
What are data scanning devices?
A scanning device is something that looks over a surface and can transfer information. Scanning devices are used to tell you the price of things for example.
What scansion used to find in a poem?
rhythm
Can scanning tunnel microscopy be used for larger objects say a die?
Sure. You can look at any part of something, but remember the scale you are working on. Using an STM would be like using a magnifying glass on a soccer field.
What is Doppler scanning?
Doppler scanning-- A procedure in which ultrasound images are used to watch a moving structure such as the flow of blood or the beating of the heart.
Are gamma rays used in altrasounds?
No. Sound, not radiation, is used in ultrasonic scanning.
What is the GM Tech 2 used for?
The GM Tech 2 is used for many things. The GM Tech 2 is used for scanning. Typically, the GM Tech 2 is used as a scanning tool for different GM vehicles.
