Multislice computed tomography (CT) advancements, particularly 16-slice systems, offer improved resolution and faster scanning for routine and cardiac imaging. Future potential includes enhanced temporal resolution and area-detector CT systems.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology and Medical Imaging
  • Diagnostic Imaging Technology

Context:

  • The evolution of multislice computed tomography (CT) technology.
  • Advancements in X-ray imaging systems for clinical diagnostics.

Purpose:

  • To provide an overview of the current status and future potential of multislice CT.
  • To highlight the benefits and limitations of 4- to 16-slice CT systems.

Summary:

  • Established 4- to 16-slice CT systems provide enhanced volume coverage, X-ray tube utilization, and transverse resolution.
  • 16-slice CT with submillimeter slices represents a significant step towards isotropic scanning for routine use.
  • ECG-gated cardiac CT on 16-slice systems shows improved robustness due to better temporal and spatial resolution.

Impact:
