A forthcoming cross-sectional atlas correlating CT scans with anatomical structures.

R S Ledley

    Computerized Tomography
    |January 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary

    A new cross-sectional anatomy atlas correlates actual computerized axial tomographic (CT) scans with detailed anatomical structures. This resource aids understanding of cross-sectional anatomy using CT imaging.

    Science (New York, N.Y.)·1996

    Area of Science:

    • Anatomy
    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • The advent of whole-body computerized axial tomographic (CT) scanners necessitates resources correlating CT images with anatomical structures.
    • Existing anatomical atlases may not adequately represent cross-sectional views derived from CT technology.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a forthcoming cross-sectional anatomy atlas.
    • To illustrate the correlation between actual CT scans and detailed anatomical structures.
    • To provide a guide for understanding cross-sectional anatomy in the context of CT imaging.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing CT scans from normal living human volunteers.
    • Developing a cross-sectional atlas format.
    • Discussing fundamental differences between cross-sectional and conventional anatomy.
    • Explaining the relationship between cross-sectional anatomy and CT.

    Main Results:

    • The atlas will feature CT scans correlated with anatomical diagrams.
    • The textual format will include page presentations, use of color in scans, and advanced scanner features.
    • Sample scans and diagrams will be presented to illustrate the atlas content.

    Conclusions:

    • The forthcoming atlas will serve as a valuable tool for learning and reference in cross-sectional anatomy.
    • It bridges the gap between radiological imaging and anatomical understanding.
    • The atlas leverages advanced CT technology for accurate anatomical representation.
