Individualized computer tomography of the skull with the EMI scanner using the 160 X 160 matrix.
The individualized approach to the performance of computerized tomography of the skull is described. With the use of the 160X160 matrix it is possible to look at the initial scans almost immediately after their completion. If necessary, unsatisfactory scans can be repeated, the position of the head can be changed and artifacts due to motion can be minimized or eliminated. Lesions can be revealed or enhanced with intravenously injected contrast material if desired. The individualized approach has eliminated the need to recall patients and has improved the diagnostic capability of the method.
