Computer axial tomography CAT

For soft human tissue that would be otherwise have too low a contrast to be resolved in conventional high-intensity planar X-ray radiography, a thorough study of X-ray absorbance as a function of tissue density and thickness allowed the development of hardware and software for computed axial tomography (CAT scanning) which performs a three-dimensional analysis of X-ray absorption at low intensities and convenient two-dimensional displays of resolved human tissue features. 

ESR is an alternative to NMR spectroscopy, while the major alternative to MRI imaging is CT, otherwise known as computer axial tomography (CAT/CT scan).

During the last two years Atlantic Scientific Corporation have been working with a large Ohio based company that manufactures brain and body scanners for hospitals. These are commonly called CAT scanners (Computerized Axial Tomography), and each consists of a large computer and several other microprocessor systems. 

Computerized axial tomography (Godfrey Newbold Hounsfield) In London, doctors performed the first GAT scan of a hving patient and detected a brain tumor. In a CAT (or GT) scan, X rays are taken of a body like slices in a loaf of bread. A computer then assembles these shces into a detail-laden three-dimensional image.
