Computed Topography, which is abbreviated CT, is a diagnostic technique that beams ionizing x-rays at multiple angles around a specific section of the body to detect disease. I knew that this was a CT scan because unlike other common diagnostic techniques like magnetic resonance imaging CT scans utilized ionizing x-rays. MRIs conversely utilize radio waves.
