Quantity of tomographic blurring.

K Astrand, C G Helander, S Reichmann

    Acta Radiologica: Diagnosis
    |January 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Spiral tomographic movement offers reduced blurring compared to circular movement. This is because the focus point in spiral paths approaches the central point more closely, enhancing image clarity.
