A CT Scanner refers to Computed Tomography. CT scan uses X-rays to make detailed pictures of parts of your body and the structures inside your body.

CT Scanner are categorized technically by the number of slices or scans or images it can take per rotation . The single slicer takes one image per rotation and is the bottom most in the ladder.

The hierarchy goes as : 1( single), 2 ( Dual) , 4 ( Quad) , 6, 8, 16, 32, 40, 64, 128, 256, and 512 scans/sec.

What is it for?

 

CT scans are vital for detecting terminal diseases like brain tumors, cancer,neurological problems and other underlying abnormalities of the body, organs, bones, soft tissue and blood vessels typically provide greater detail than traditional x-rays, particularly of soft tissues and blood vessels. CT scanning provides more detailed information on head injuries, stroke, brain tumors and other brain diseases than regular radiographs (x-rays).

APPLICATION IN THE  MEDICAL WORLD

 

Quickly identify injuries to the lungs, heart and vessels, liver, spleen, kidneys, bowel or other internal organs in cases of trauma.

It successfully guides biopsies and other procedures such as abscess drainages and minimally invasive tumor treatments.

Plan for and assess the results of surgery, such as organ transplants or gastric bypass.

It helps in stage, plan and properly administer radiation treatments for tumors as well as monitor response to chemotherapy.

Aids in Measuring bone mineral density for the detection of osteoporosis.

A C.T scan is the doctor’s guide to figure out what is going inside the patient’s body, depending upon the extent of the problem, different scan may be required.

There are various types of scans that are available depending upon the need of the patient such as

What should an ideal CT scanner contain?

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]

The Application of CT Scanners depends on Scope and Size of Hospitals and Diagnostic Centres.  A effectiveness of CT Scanner depends on the number of Images / Scans it can take per second.

Smaller hospitals and nursing homes do not require a very high end CT as they do routine scanning more , and that  too 80-90% of cases are head cases .

  • It should be fast in processingC.T scanner contain
  • Have agood memory storage.
  • Starting up time should be low
  • Scan volume should be high
  • Irrespective of the type of CT scanner selected the most critical element in the entire process of selection and utilization of ascanner depends on the availability of service in the local region and the type of service contracts. One must watch out for situations in which a manufacturer may lower the cost of its scanner to compete with other manufacturers but indirectly make up for the loss of the scanner cost by levying higher rates for service contracts.

Therefore, examining the type of service available in the region

And the type of service agreement with a manufacturer is crucial at the time of selection.

As CT Scanner Manufacturing companies have stopped manufacturing the 1,2,4 slice CTs , and are usually starting from 16 slice onward.

For the High End CT Scanners above 16 slice onwards the initial cost and running cost is quite substantial and is not viable for smaller hospitals and diagnostic centres.

Hence the used/ refurbished Emotion is a good machine o buy, as it can make the project viable and can be value for money.
