Selected Applications of Computed Tomography

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 use.
