A spiral CT is a new technology, it refers to the way the xrays are emitted. The tube that produces the xrays is paralell with a receiver on the opposite side of the opening in the CT machine. To take the image, the tube and receiver are circling as it is doing this the bed is moving into the opening. This combination creates a spiral movement around your body. This new technology allows for a quicker scan and reduced radiation dose while not sacrificing the image quality.
What else can I help you with?
What is a spiral CT?
Spiral CT, also called helical CT, is a newer version of CT scanning that is continuous in motion and allows for three-dimensional re-creation of images
How does a spiral CT compare to a traditional CT?
major advantage of spiral CT is higher resolution and the ability to reconstruct images anywhere along the length.Although spiral is more advantageous for many applications, conventional CT is still a superior and precise method for imaging many tissues.
What is the difference between a ct scan and a spiral ct scan?
No difference. CT machines used to take a single 'slice' at a time. Now they take a 'spiral' image whilst the patient moves through them and the 'slices' are created afterwards by the machine's software. When the multi-slice CT machines came along, people started referring to them as 'spiral CT' to differentiate from the older machines. All CTs these days are 'spiral'.
What are 3 screening tests for cancer?
endoscopy, examining cells, ultrasoun and ct scaning
What is the newest form of computed tomography scan?
Spiral CT, also called helical CT, is a newer version of CT scanning which is continuous in motion and allows for three-dimensional recreation of images.
What are the advantages of spiral computed tomography scans?
A major advantage of spiral CT is the ability to reconstruct images anywhere along the length of the study area. The procedure also speeds up the imaging process, meaning less time for the patient to lie still.
Where is Hi-Q spiral ct scan and specialty clinic in quezon city?

What specifically is ablation?
Radio Frequency ablation is a medical procedure used to treat tumors. This is done in conjunctin with something like x-ray screening, CT scans, or ultrasounds.
What is macro screening and micro screening?
mikro screening
What shape does an spiral galaxy have?
First of all, it's a spiral galaxy, not an spiral galaxy. Second, a spiral galaxy would have a spiral shape, obviously.
What shape describes some bacterial cell?
