5 Questions
What is the term for the length that determines the acquired x-ray beam thickness?
Detector collimation
What are the streak artifacts in MSCT primarily caused by?
Dominant cone beam
In MSCT, why are cone beam artifacts more pronounced compared to SSCT?
Wider x-ray beam widths
What is the main factor affecting the severity of cone beam artifacts?

Explore the benefits of MS/MD CT imaging, including its ability to rapidly capture detailed images of large tissue volumes, its utility in reducing the impact of patient motion, and its capacity to produce thin, high-detail slice images or 3-D images. Understand how opening up the collimator affects slice thickness and spatial resolution.
