Computerised Axial Tomography
(CAT) Scans
Computed Tomography (CAT) Scans have become the preferred method of imaging many diseases of the bowel, colon, liver, spleen and other organs. The CT Scanner is a large, specialised X-ray machine that takes a series of digital images as the patient moves through a hole in the center of the machine. The resulting images are computer processed to show cross sections of the body’s tissues and organs.
