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.
Is heart scan same as the CT scan?
Yes.Newer name for the same thing:CT is 'computed tomography'CAT was 'computed axial tomography'Both use a narrow x-ray beam rotated about the axis of the object being scanned (thus the word "axial" in the original name), a powerful computer is then used to reduce the information collected to produce a special photo called a "tomograph". No difference at all other than the name was shortened.
What is the difference between a ct head scan and a ct sinus scan?
A head scan looks primarily at the brain and a sinus scan looks only at the sinuses in the face region.
What does a CT scan give you?
A CT scan gives a 3D report of any normal or abnormalities in the internal organs scanned through a computerized system called Computerized Axial Tomography (CAT).
Is cat scan an acronym?
CAT scan used to be short for Computerized Axial Tomography. Think of this as using computers to map the body in the axial plane. (axial is a direction that the image is processed in). The newer machines not only do axial but also multiple other imaging planes (coronal,sagital,biplane,multi plane,etc.) So now they dropped the "axial" and just call it CT scan short for Computerized Tomography.
What difference value between K and Ct?
the same as the difference between ct and k
What is the difference between Ohms and Ohms CT in impedance of an audio transformer?
The difference in between Ohms and Ohms CT is that in Ohms CT it has CT at the end.
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
What is the time difference between IST and CT?
There is no time difference between Central European Time and Irish Summer Time.
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 does Cat in Catscan means?
CAT scan - Computed Axial Tomography. Usually called "CT scan" now, as the images can be axial, sagittal or coronal/frontal.
Is heart scan same as the CT scan?

Difference between CAT scan and cat scan with contrast?
A CAT scan is actually just an acronysm of the actual name of the test. CAT used to stand for Computerized Axial Tomography ( which is a fancy way of saying you use computers to to form images or slices of the anatomy) (the Axial stands for the plane of the image in relationship to the body) Think of slicing the body from end to end like a loaf of bread. This has been shortened over the years to just CT scan or Computerized Tomography. ( the CT scanner now takes different angles of imaging and is no longer just axial imaging). Contrast is something put into the body thru injection, by swallowing, or both to give the pictures a "contrast" to what it normaly looks like, and gives us a way of pulling out certain aspects of the image to see some things better. So what it comes down to is a CT scan is still the same either way but your doctor may order it with contrast, without contrast, or both depending on what he needs to see.
What is another name for CT scans?
Computed tomography is also known as computerized axial tomography or CAT scan
What procedures assist diagnosis of esophageal cancer?
Radiography, endoscopy, computerized axial tomography (CT scan), and ultrasonography
What is the difference between 22 ct and 24 ct gold?
The main difference between 22 ct and 24 ct gold is the purity level. 24 ct gold is pure gold, which is 99.9% pure, while 22 ct gold is 91.7% pure with the remaining 8.3% being other metals like copper or silver. This means that 24 ct gold is softer and more malleable compared to 22 ct gold, which is more durable but slightly less pure.
what is Full form of cat scan?
if this helps , I'm not sure it will but ct stands for computed tomography Computerized Axial Tomography
