31 week gestation fetus, imaged in utero. 3D volume rendering from abdominal CT data. Exam confirmed acute appendicitis in the mother.
One thing that struck me is how strong that table must be. I think it's about 10 feet long... as you can see, it doesn't even fit in the frame. But it's only supported at the end away from the machine. Plus, I don't think that it can have any metal in it because metal supports would show in the CT scan.
I didn't read much about CT scans before showing up, but they really do dose you with a ton of x-rays. I got my torso scanned, which is like getting about 90 chest x-rays at once.
Over the last 40 years, TWI has been at the forefront of the research, development and application of many non-destructive testing (NDT) technologies. The driving force behind these developments has been industry's need for techniques that would accurately locate, characterise and size flaws in every type of component and structure, from printed circuit boards to offshore platforms and from medical implants to nuclear reactor pressure vessels.

This is what four slices of my belly would look like if my insides were in black and white.
I'm surprised at how cylindrical I am. I need to lose some weight.
It's set up in it's own room, and when you walk in, the space just oozes of money. It's decorated a little like how I imagine spas to be, with a lot of wood, and muted colors.
Intensive care patient, CT scan. Coloured 3-D computed tomography (CT) scan of a ski accident victim. A respirator and suction tube in his mouth allows the patient to breathe. The patient is wearing a neck support. This image was produced using a multi-slice CT scanner, which uses a thin X-ray beam to scan around the patient collecting data from different angles to create 'slices' of the body. A computer reconstructs the slices into coloured three-dimensional images of the body, including bones and soft tissue. This image was created using OsiriX medical imaging software which allows surgeons to navigate around the body using fly-through animations of the data.

A few slices from my latest CT scan, taken at the end of September 2009.
I've circled the biggest lung tumours metastasized from my original colon cancer (which was removed by surgery in mid-2007). You can see the one in my upper left one and two (one right behind the other) in my lower left lung.
There are six more tumours, all smaller, not easily visible in this view. I'm not a radiologist, so I couldn't readily distinguish them from regular lung matter and other tissue. So now we can all see what I'm dealing with.
These tumours have all grown slightly since I started treatment with cediranib in November 2008. To my untrained eye, the view doesn't look that different from the last time I saw my scan in December of that year, which is fairly good as far as I'm concerned.
The CT Scanner Laboratory provides imaging data that can be used for computer simulations, economic evaluations, and site characterizations. The scanner generates a three-dimensional (3-D) image of an object's structure by collecting and combining many 2-D X-ray images. Coal, rock, and other geological samples are imaged to measure how liquids, gases, and solids flow through them, or to measure other rock-fluid phenomena, such as how CO2 is adsorbed or absorbed in coal cores. The measurements provide information on the actual distribution of minerals and fluids inside samples, rather than providing merely average measurements.
The CT scanner is a medical imaging device that uses x-rays to show cross-sectional images of the anatomic structure of the body. Rapidly produces detailed pictures of the brain, chest, abdomen and pelvis. It can make pictures of the body organs, including the liver, intestines, pancreas, bladder, kidney, adrenal glands, heart and lungs. Also, can study blood vessels and show blood clots.
More, it is used to detect any masses, lesions or tumours. It will not only reveal their presence, but also the location, size and extent of a tumour.
GE Healthcare got a close-up look at a 42,000 year-old baby woolly mammoth using state of the art medical equipment. Discovered in 2007 by a reindeer herder in northwestern Siberia, Lyuba (pronounced Lee-OO-bah) is considered the best-preserved mammoth ever discovered.
Researchers wanted to collect data to learn more about the life and features of this extinct species. “A lot of the information Lyuba can provide is not visible on the surface, so to be able to see things through a CT scan or an MRI which show her internal organs and the structure beneath her skin is really important,” says Tom Swerski, Project Manager of Exhibitions of The Field Museum.

X-rays are important medical tools but aren't without risk. Here’s how to reduce the risks posed by radiation. Read this FDA Consumer Update: www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm095505.htm
An animated view of a CT (computed tomography) scan of the top 160 mm (6.3 inches) my head.
The scan is actually in reverse, starting from the middle of my head and working up to the top. White areas are densest (bone) and black areas are least dense (air).
It seems to pick up speed about halfway through because the first 24 frames are 2.5-mm slices and the next 20 frames are 5.0-mm slices.

WATERFORD, MICH (2008) - Here is my Manidible CT. I've had to go to a maxillofacial surgeon for two years now. He promised to reveal a new smile for me I guess you'll know when I show you the next photo.
A 2.5-mm slice of my head, via computed tomography (CT) scan. This was taken when I was in the hospital for sinusitis. The white areas are extremely dense (bone) and the black areas are empty (air).

The grey stuff here is my brain. It's a lot less cluttered-looking than I thought it would be.

What I'll be drinking tonight for St. Patrick's Day: Barium Sulfate smoothies to prepare for my abdominal CT scan tomorrow morning at Washington Radiology Associates. Not the way I'd prefer spending the end of my week, but hopefully the CT scan will find the source of my abdominal pain, be it kidney stones, gallstones, appendix, diverticulitis, etc. I hope it's something easily fixable! I'm soooo tired of health problems and appointments, invasive procedures, and hefty bills.
