Multidetector computed tomography

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Multidetector computed tomography - a type of computed tomography that uses a two-dimensional detector array, allowing for the acquisition of multiple slices simultaneously. This results in an increase in imaging acquisition speed, more coverage of the patient, and high spatial resolution. Mdct acquires volume data instead of individual slice data.
