It is effectively 'optical ultrasound', imaging reflections from within tissue to provide cross-sectional images.

A CT scan uses special X-rays to create cross-sectional images of the brain.

Then the screen displayed a three-hundredsixty-degree cross-sectional image of the inside of the opening, spinning it around to show offall angles.

CT brain perfusion scans produce cross-sectional images of the head that evaluate blood flow in the brain.

It is applied in Computed Tomography to obtain cross-sectional images of patients.

MRI can generate cross-sectional images in any plane (including oblique planes).

The technique makes it possible for doctors to see cross-sectional images of far higher magnification and resolution than the images delivered by ultrasound.

These are then combined by a computer, producing a cross-sectional image of the brain.

These cross-sectional images are used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in various medical disciplines.

A special imaging technique that uses a computer to collect multiple x ray images into a two-dimensional cross-sectional image.
