Medical Imaging
Computed tomography (CT) is a medical imaging technique used to visualize internal structures of the body in detail. It combines a series of X-ray images taken from different angles and uses computer processing to create cross-sectional images, or slices, of bones, blood vessels, and soft tissues. CT provides more detailed information than standard X-rays.
