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).

The difference is in the type of radiation used to form the image.

A third type, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses the miniscule magnetic fields of naturally occurring compounds within the human body to create its images.
