The data collected is then processed by a computer to create detailed cross-sectional images, or slices, of the body. These images provide valuable information about the bones, organs, blood vessels, and soft tissues, allowing doctors to diagnose and evaluate a wide range of medical conditions, such as tumors, fractures, infections, and internal injuries. CT scans are particularly useful for detecting abnormalities in the brain, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. They are often preferred for their ability to produce high-resolution images quickly, aiding in efficient diagnosis and treatment planning. However, because CT scans involve exposure to ionizing radiation, appropriate precautions are taken to minimize radiation dose and ensure patient safety.
