Computed Tomography (CT)
Computed Tomography (CT) creates images of selected anatomy by obtaining data through scans. Once the scan is complete, the data is seamlessly pieced together to create an accurate image of the study area. This enables visualization of conditions or disease processes that may not be noted with traditional imaging.
