What is CT scan?

A CT scan, or computed tomography scan, is a medical imaging technique that uses X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images of the body. It is commonly used to diagnose a wide range of conditions, including bone fractures, tumors, internal bleeding, and infections. It works by rotating an X-ray tube around the patient and capturing multiple images from different angles, which are then processed by a computer to create a 3D representation of the scanned area.
