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.

A PET scan is a scan of the brain to see what's going on inside. It is used for cancer patients to find out exactly where the tumor is and make surgery easier.
They are just as they say. An abdominal cat scan is just of that area and a pelvic cat scan is just of that area. Usually if an abdominal cat scan is ordered a pelvis is included so as to cover all things in both areas but if a pelvic cat scan is ordered it usually does not include the abdomen.
The MUGA scan stands for Multiple Gated Acquisition Scan and is an extremely useful tool to assess the function of the heart. It's also noninvasive. The scan provides a moving image of the beating heart. From this image medical professionals can make conclusions about the health of the cardiac ventricles.
Ct scan
Cross-sectional views are typically produced by slicing an object along a plane perpendicular to its axis. This allows for a detailed examination of the internal structure and features of the object. Technologies such as computerized tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and engineering drawings are commonly used to create cross-sectional views.
Basically it is not. However, there are studies being tiltled as prospective cross sectional study, but these kind fo terms should be used with caution and clear explanation.
A CT scan, or computed tomography scan, is a machine used to check the brain for swelling or internal bleeding. It creates detailed cross-sectional images of the brain using X-rays to help diagnose conditions such as traumatic brain injury or stroke.
A full sectional view displays an object as if it has been cut completely through along a specific plane, revealing the internal features in detail. In contrast, a half sectional view shows the object cut along a plane but only illustrates half of the interior, while the other half remains in its original view. This allows for a clearer representation of complex shapes while still highlighting internal details. Both views are used in technical drawings to provide insight into the structure and design of an object.
Sectional views are used to shows the internal detail of an object. The drawing will show the interior part of an object as if it was cut in half or quartered. essentially a flat plane passed through a 3 dimentional object highlighting all the internal detail

Military planes can do so but mainly you will see a Extra plane flying. The category of aircraft that do this is acrobatic.
It depends on the type of scan but by far the most common scan uses "gamma" rays to get a picture. The radionuclide used is Tc99m which gives off gamma rays at 140 kEV, a very suitable energy level for the cameras used in nuclear medicine.
TCP port 25 is usually used by SMTP servers (for sending e-mails).
i think ink is not used to scan documents.
The term "sagittal" is commonly used in anatomy to describe a plane that divides the body into left and right sections. For example, "The MRI scan revealed a sagittal view of the brain, showing the midline structures in detail."
