It permits the gantry frame to rotate continuously, eliminating the need to straighten twisted system cables.

Microphone

Laser light

Slip ring

Generator

Usually located on the side of the gantry opening or in place that will allow the technologist to control the alignment of lights, gantry tilt and table movement.

Aperture

Control panel

Microphone

Laser light

It produces the x-ray photons that create the CT image. Their design is a modification of a standard rotating anode tube made of Tungsten. CT tube is designed to handle enormous amount of stress.

Xray source

Pre patient collimator

Post patient collimator

Collimation

It is located below the patient and above the detector array and shapes the beam after it has passed through the patient. It ensures that the beam has the proper width as it enters the detector thus preventing the scatter radiation from reaching the detector.

Post patient collimator

Pre patient collimator

It is located near the x-ray source and limits the amount of x-ray emerging to thin ribbons. It resembles small shutters with an opening that adjusts, dependent on the operator’s selection of slice thickness thus affecting the patient dose by how the dose is distributed across slice thickness.

Pre detector collimator

Pre patient collimator

It restricts the x-ray beam to a specific area, there by reducing scatter radiation thus, reducing patient dose and increasing image quality. Collimators also control the slice thickness by narrowing or widening the x-ray beam.

Collimation

Filtration

Cooling system

Entire collection of detector in a CT system that is arranged in ring or arc.

Generators produce high voltage and transmit it to the x-ray tube that determines the range of exposure techniques available.

Pre detector

Usually located on the side of the gantry opening or in place that will allow the technologist to control the alignment of lights, gantry tilt and table movement.

Ct scanner are complex, with many different components involved in the process of creating an image.

True

False

Measure the intensity of transmitted x-ray radiation along a beam projected from the x-ray source to that particular detector element. The collected information by the detectors is from the x-ray beam that passes through the patient and is attenuated to some degree thus, producing an image.

Computer console

Composed of hardware and software components. Its computer system is fed and gathered with information as the CT x-ray tube has been activated.
