Computed Tomography (CT)

Computed tomography (CT) systems use a series of X-ray images to create an image volume dataset with slices that can be manipulated on any plane using advanced visualization software. The section includes computed tomography scanners, CT contrast agents, CT angiography (CTA and CCTA), CT perfusion, spectral CT (dual-source CT), and iterative reconstruction dose reduction software.

As the world, particularly the imaging community, is aware, disruptions in a pharmaceutical supply chain have impacted the global availability, and shortage of, iohexol iodinated contrast media (ICM), a common agent used in a multitude of CT and X-ray exams.
