CT Anatomy, Pathophysiology and Instrumentation

Both normal and pathologic computed tomography (CT) specific anatomy are reviewed. A thorough understanding of both normal and abnormal anatomy as they appear with and without CT contrast is required for clinical rotations, and to correlate with other CT courses and, to some extent, with other relevant modalities including MR, Ultrasound and Nuclear Medicine. There is also a laboratory/tutorial component based on CT physics and problem solving for learning how to adjust technical parameters, patient positioning, and equipment controls for the major equipment manufacturers without direct physician interaction.
