An up-to-date guide to CT that offers a comprehensive discussion of the technology and science of computed tomography and instructions for applying that knowledge to real-world practice Rad Tech's Guide to Computed Tomography: Physics and Instrumentation is a comprehensive and accessible approach to learning the physics and instrumentation of CT. The text offers an intuitively organized treatment of the history of CT development, data acquisition, image reconstruction, and the relationship between image quality and radiation dose. Using clear language, hands-on examples and useful diagrams, the book is written to demystify complex topics like Hounsfield Units, attenuation coefficients, and interpolation algorithms, without compromising technical accuracy. This is an educational resource that shows readers how to perform imaging that generates diagnostically useful results that keep patients safe. Readers will find: * An up-to-date exploration of the use of artificial intelligence in medical imaging * Concise explorations of the physics of state-of-the-art CT scanners, relevant to the day-to-day work of practicing RTs * Practical discussions of relevant, selected topics, including Multi-Slice CT, the basics of image postprocessing, and quality control fundamentals * Guidance on how to ensure consistent diagnostic performance without compromising patient safety * Complete treatments of data acquisition, including slice-by-slice and volume data acquisition Perfect for students preparing to write professional certification examinations in CT, Rad Tech's Guide to Computed Tomography will also benefit practicing technologists interested in advancing their understanding, refining their technique, and expanding their professional skillset.
