X-ray computed tomography has been used for several decades as a tool for measuring the three-dimensional geometry of the internal organs in medicine. However, in recent years, we have seen a move in manufacturing industries for the use of X-ray computed tomography; first to give qualitative information about the internal geometry and defects in a component, and more recently, as a fully-quantitative technique for dimensional and materials analysis. This trend is primarily due to the ability of X-ray computed tomography to give a high-density and multi-scale representation of both the external and internal geometry of a component, in a non-destructive, non-contact and relatively fast way. But, due to the complexity of X-ray computed tomography, there are remaining metrological issues to solve and the specification standards are still under development. This book will act as a one-stop-shop resource for students and users of X-ray computed tomography in both academia and industry. It presents the fundamental principles of the technique, detailed descriptions of the various components (hardware and software), current developments in calibration and performance verification and a wealth of example applications. The book will also highlight where there is still work to do, in the perspective that X-ray computed tomography will be an essential part of Industry 4.0.

This volume provides an overview of X-ray technology and the historical development of modern CT systems. The main focus of the book is a detailed derivation of reconstruction algorithms in 2D and modern 3D cone-beam systems. A thorough analysis of CT artifacts and a discussion of practical issues such as dose considerations give further insight into current CT systems. Although written mainly for graduate students, practitioners will also benefit from this book.

Since the first edition of Whole Body Computed Tomography was published in 1983, the field has been revolutionized by developments in hardware and software for CT units and new non-ionic contrast media, leading to shorter examination times, enhanced image quality and increased patient comfort. All of these changes and more are now included in the second edition, making Whole Body Computed Tomography the indispensable reference for radiologists, surgeons and internists. The second edition is presented in a totally new atlas format and has been expanded to include more than 1500 images, most of which are new to this edition and are of the very highest quality. Computer tomograms are placed alongside related line drawings so that readers can learn and apply diagnostic skills. The computer-animated graphics make it possible to reproduce CTs photgraphically with high precision. And, while the whole book has been updated, the kidney chapter has doubled in size, and a chapter on the techniques of computed tomography has been added. In addition to the basic anatomical information, chapters on physics, equipment and contast media are included. Each organ of the body cavity is examined in terms of anatomy and imaging, and examination technique: special emphasis is placed on scan both with and without the latest contrast media. Clinical conditions are described step-by-step, with CT findings immediately following.
