Regarding fourth-generation CT scanners: a. The dose is less than in other generations b. The number of detectors is increased by a factor of 8 c. They need simpler reconstruction d. The calibration can be readjusted through each scanning cycle e. They are the best for cardiac imaging |

Answer» a. False. Fourth-generation CT uses rotate–stationary scanners. The advantages are: detector stability, simpler reconstruction and readjustment of calibration through the scanning cycle. The disadvantages are: an increase in the number of detectors by a factor of 6, it is prohibitive in multi-slice CT, and there is a higher dose because of the increased distance between the patient and the detectors. b. False. c. True. d. True. e. False. |
