How Does a CT Scanner work?
Our CT Scanner is the Neurologica Ceretom, which is an 8 slice portable scanner. X-rays are aimed at the body, and the scanner quickly rotates around the pet to create cross-sectional images. The computer reconstructs the images taken to provide a more comprehensive 3-D view of the body, versus a 2-D Radiograph.
