Its rapid acceptance is due to the fact that it has overcome several of the drawbacks of conventional X-ray technology.
To begin with, conventional two-dimensional X-ray pictures cannot show all of the information contained in a three-dimensional object. Things at different depths are superimposed, causing confusion to the viewer. Computed tomography can give three-dimensional information. The computer is able to re- construct pictures of the body’’s interior by measuring the varying intensities of X-ray beams passing through sections of the body from hundreds of different angles. Such pictures are based on series of thin ’’slices’’.
In addition, conventional X-rays generally differentiate only between bone and air, as in the chest and lungs. They cannot distinguish .soft tissues or variations in tissues. The liver and pan
