✦ Synopsis

This book covers the engineering and clinical benefits in diagnosis of human pathologies, including the protocols and potential of advanced tomography scanning with very high quality CT images. With contributions from world-class experts, the book examines all aspects of CT technologies related to neck-brain, cardiovascular systems, thorax, abdomen and GI system, pelvis and urinary system, and musculoskeletal system. It also provides coverage of CAD applications to CT along with a discussion of the potential dangers of CT in terms of over-radiation, particularly related to children.
