A CT scan image showing a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. CT Scan of 11 cm Wilms' tumor of right kidney in 13-month-old patient. Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis is an application of computed tomography (CT) and is a sensitive method for diagnosis of abdominal diseases. It is used frequently to determine stage of cancer and to ...
CT scan of a normal abdomen and pelvis, in sagittal plane, coronal and axial planes, respectively. CT is an accurate technique for diagnosis of ...
Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis, performed as a contrast CT, here presented as a volume rendering, specifying the scan range and field of view (FOV). It shows normal anatomy, with no injuries. The subject is a 21 year old male who had blunt trauma to the upper abdomen during motocross.
Volume rendered CT scan of abdominal and pelvic blood vessels. CT angiography is a contrast CT where images are taken with a certain delay after injection of radiocontrast material. The contrast material is radiodense causing it to light up brightly within the blood vessels of interest. In order for the CT scanner to be able to scan the correct ...
Historically, omental infarction was diagnosed only intraoperatively during surgery for presumed appendicitis or other causes of acute abdomen. But with the increase in the use of imaging, especially abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan in the work-up for acute abdomen, more cases of omental infarction are being diagnosed preoperatively.
Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis, performed as a contrast CT, here presented in the sagittal, en:Coronal planecoronal and axial plane, with 3 mm slice thickness. It shows normal anatomy, with no injuries. The subject is a 21 year old male who had blunt trauma to the upper abdomen during motocross.
In conventional CT machines, an X-ray tube and detector are physically rotated behind a circular shroud (see the image above right). An alternative, short lived design, known as electron beam tomography (EBT), used electromagnetic deflection of an electron beam within a very large conical X-ray tube and a stationary array of detectors to achieve very high temporal resolution, for imaging of ...
A computed tomography urography (CT urography or CT urogram) is a computed tomography scan that examines the urinary tract after contrast dye is injected into a vein. [1]In a CT urogram, the contrast agent is through a cannula into a vein, allowed to be cleared by the kidneys and excreted through the urinary tract as part of the urine.
