Synopsis

Now in its updated Second Edition, this volume is the only text on computed tomography that is specifically geared to radiologic technologists. It gives technologists a thorough working knowledge of normal cross-sectional anatomy and CT scanning techniques, including newer techniques such as spiral CT and high-resolution CT of the chest. The book is an ideal everyday reference and a perfect study guide for subspecialty certification examinations such as the one given by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. Anatomically oriented chapters cover all cranial and extracranial regions of the body. Normal cross-sectional anatomy is shown in 150 CT scans made on a state-of-the-art scanner, with corresponding line drawings on which anatomic landmarks are labeled. Additional chapters cover principles and instruments of CT; clinical considerations for the CT technologist; contrast media reactions; CT-guided interventional techniques; and spiral CT.
