This book offers in-depth description on advanced topics in the field of computed tomography. Computed tomography involves the use of computer processed x-rays for imaging of the scanned subject. It encompasses a wide range of topics including molecular imaging, development of articulation simulation system with the help of vocal tract model, etc. The aim of this book is to provide distinct information regarding the field of computed tomography to the readers. It will appeal to a great range of readers including researchers, scientists and even students who wish learn more about the technique...

The book offers an in-depth look at computed tomography and its clinical aspects. Computed tomography is a crucial imaging method in clinical practice, especially, multi-detector-row computed tomography (MDCT). It is an important non-invasive imaging device and has numerous advantages over other such devices. It was the first non-invasive imaging technique to examine internal human body not biased by superimposition of different anatomical structures. It was introduced in 1970s and since then, it has advanced and improved to a great extent. For instances, the introduction of helical systems...

All the selected applications of computed tomography are described in this insightful book. Computed tomography is a crucial imaging method in clinical practice. It was introduced in 1970s and since then, it has advanced and improved to a great extent. For instance, the introduction of helical systems has allowed the development of the "volumetric CT" concept. Even the anthropomorphic, forensic, paleontological and archeological applications of CT have emerged. Such applications make it a versatile diagnostic technology for non-destructive material testing and 3D imaging, beyond its medical...
