MULTI-SLICE CT SCAN
WHAT DOES MULTI-SLICE MEAN ?
The tube contains a ‘ring’ of X-ray emitters and receptors.
The quality and accuracy of the images obtained is proportional to the number of emitters and receptors.
The technology has evolved rapidly and successive enhancements have resulted in the latest generation of 64 multi-slice CT scan systems with a 0.3 mm imaging resolution used at the Institut Hospitalier Jacques Cartier in Massy.
Cardiac and especially coronary imaging require optimal accuracy.
