17 paź 2023 · Herein, we summarize major technological milestones in the history of CT imaging (Fig 1) (4 – 25) and highlight important clinical advances made possible by technological developments, with a discussion of future directions.
29 paź 2021 · On Friday, October 1, 1971, a new procedure was performed to image a live patient’s brain. After a (lengthy) computer processing reconstruction delay, a remarkable image appeared on the screen of a monitor, sparking a revolution in medical imaging.
11 sie 2021 · Purpose: We provide a review of the key computed tomography (CT) technologies developed since the late 1980s and offer an overview of one of the future technologies under development. The focus of this review is mainly on the hardware and system development.
Computed Tomography (CT) scans revolutionise medical imaging, providing detailed, non-invasive images for accurate diagnosis and treatment. Key advancements include faster, higher-resolution imaging, reduced radiation doses, and potential future enhancements with AI and portable devices.
9 wrz 2015 · With the first CT scanners in hospitals and medical practices, computed tomography soon becomes the examination method of choice for brain tissue. The contrast-rich images prompt clinicians to call for a related advance: CT images of the whole body free of superimpositions to examine the liver, intestines, joints, and the heart.
7 paź 2016 · Biggest advancements in Computed Tomography in more recent years: Overall improvements in speed, slice count, radiation dose and image quality. 20 Years ago, a CT exam could take 30 minutes or more. Now, a CT exam can collect images and information in less than 1-2 seconds.
Computed Tomography (CT) builds on developments in two fields - X-ray imaging and computing. X-rays were discovered in 1895 and within a few years were an established medical tool. By the 1930s, tomography was being developed, enabling the visualisation of sections through a body.
