CT or Computed Tomography Scan (a.k.a. Computed Axial Tomography) of the brain is an advanced method of imaging the cranial cavity and brain. X-rays are pointed towards the area to be pictured at different angles which merge together to create an image. These X-rays are not stationary in position, rather they are rotated around the body from time to time. Special digital sensors are present on the CT scan machine which detect the signals created by X-rays.
The computer attached with a CT scan uses complex calculations of the values generated by the signals to make a ‘2-D slice’ of an image. Depending on the need for slices, X-rays can be taken multiple times in this manner. Image slices are a very effective way to detect the presence of medical problems anywhere inside the body.
