  • CT Scan - A computerized tomography (CT) scan integrates a sequence of X-ray images taken from various angles around the body and utilizes computer processing to produce cross-sectional pictures of the blood vessels, bones, and soft tissues in the body. CT scan images deliver more-detailed data than plain X-rays. It is well-suited to quickly inspect people suffering from internal damages or other kinds of trauma.
