∙ 12y ago"Radiography" is a general term; "CT scan" is more specific. In current usage, "CT scan" is a scanning x-ray--a particular type of radiography. However, "radiography" includes x-ray techniques other than CT scans.

What is the underlying principle for the diagnostic procedures CT-scan?
The physical basis of the CT scans lies in the fact that different tissues absorb x rays at different rates.
What kind of beams does a CAT scan use?
CAT or CT scanning can be any of a number of different scan technologies, as CAT stands for Computed Axial Tomography and says nothing about the beams used. In common use, however, CT and CAT scans typically use X-rays, and those that use more exotic techniques are named by the technique they use (PET and NMR scans, for instance).
What do radiographs and CT scans use to form images of anatomical structures?
X-Ray or radiograph
What can x-rays show in the diagnosis of pancreatitis?
Computed tomography scans (CT scans) of the abdomen may reveal the inflammation and fluid accumulation of pancreatitis, and may also be useful when complications like an abscess or a pseudocyst are suspected.
Why it is not advisable to have several x-rays and CT scan exposure in a relatively short period?
because RADIATION can come from X-rays & CT scan, which can cause cancer, & mutations in the later generation
What is the name of the scientist that studies CT scans and X-rays?
A radiologist studies CT scans and X-rays.
How do x-rays and ct scans work?
suck my balls
What is used in diagnostic imaging?
X-Rays, MRI, or CT scans.
What is sometimes used in diagnostic imaging?
X-Rays, MRI, or CT scans.
Which type of radiation is used to make images of bones inside the body?
Xrays and CT scans
How are CT scans and x rays the same?
They both use ionizing radiation to make an image.
How are spinal cord injuries diagnosed?
The location and extent of spinal cord injury is determined with computed tomography scans (CT scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, and x rays. X rays may be enhanced with an injected contrast dye.
How are CT scans and X-rays the same?
Both use X-Rays. Difference is X Rays use one single "shot" of radiation, CTs fire much more at you to get different "slices".
What are tests for CNS infections?
X-ray, MRI, and CT scans. X-rays detect lesions in internal organs. Computed axial tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used to diagnose CNS parasitic infections
What are used for medical imaging?
MRI, CT scans, X-rays, and ultrasound are some of the modalities used for medical imaging.
What is the underlying principle for the diagnostic procedures CT-scan?
The physical basis of the CT scans lies in the fact that different tissues absorb x rays at different rates.
Which preformed in the diagnostic imaging?
Common procedures performed in diagnostic imaging include X-rays, CT scans, MRI scans, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine scans. These tests are used to help diagnose and monitor various medical conditions by providing detailed images of the body's internal structures.
