Tomography Operating System Standards

Computed tomography (CT) is a widely used x-ray scanning technique. In its prominent use as a medical imaging device, CT serves as a workhorse in many clinical settings throughout the world. It provides answers to urgent diagnostic tasks such as oncology tumor staging, acute stroke analysis,...

Foreword In the past 40 years the field of tomography has evolved from simple X-ray projection imaging, autoradiography, fluorescent imaging and magnetic resonance imaging to production of the three dimensional images of the accumulation of chemical tracers injected into animals, plants and...

Over the past decade, the field of image processing has made tremendous advances. One type of image processing that is currently of particular interest is "tomographic imaging," a technique for computing the density function of a body, or discontinuity surfaces of this function. Today,...

This Standard applies to particular dose-related notification and alert messages appearing on the operating consoles of CT scanners. This Standard is not intended to define all notification, alert, or other messages resident on any CT scanner.

This European Standard defines terms used in the field of tomography.This European Standard contains not only tomography-specific terms but also other more generic terms spanning imaging and radiography. The definitions for some of these terms feature a discussion point to refocus the term...

5.1 Computed tomography (CT) is a radiographic reconstruction method that provides a sensitive technique whenever the primary goal is to locate and size planar and volumetric detail in three dimensions. 5.2 CT provides quantitative volume images as a function of density and element number...

This document specifies the general principles of X-ray computed tomography (CT), the equipment used and basic considerations of sample, materials and geometry. It is applicable to industrial imaging (i.e. non-medical applications) and gives a consistent set of CT performance parameter...

Spectral, Photon Counting Computed Tomography is a comprehensive cover of the latest developments in the most prevalent imaging modality (x-ray computed tomography (CT)) in its latest incarnation: Spectral, Dual-Energy, and Photon Counting CT. Disadvantages of the conventional...

This guide will aid the purchaser in generating a CT system specification. This guide covers the conversion of purchaser's requirements to system components that must occur for a useful CT system specification to be prepared. Additional information can be gained in discussions...

ISO 15708-4:2017 specifies guidelines for the qualification of the performance of a CT system with respect to various inspection tasks. It is applicable to industrial imaging (i.e. non-medical applications) and gives a consistent set of CT performance parameter definitions, including how...

This document presents an outline of the operation of a computed tomography (CT) system and the interpretation of results with the aim of providing the operator with technical information to enable the selection of suitable parameters. It is applicable to industrial imaging (i.e....
