Microlayertomography System

In common radiography, the images of all bodys structures lying within the path of radiation overlap each other. Tomography separates the required image from the surrounding area. Preliminary mechanism of sectional radiography, called the longitudinal tomography, does enhance the quality of image, but because of the different velocity of unwanted images, lying nearer to or further from axis central point, tomographic blurring does occur. Microlayer tomography with high X-ray rotating velocity without tube movement provides images with depth perception of millimeter fraction, and there is no need for digital image reconstruction. The pace of the procedure is exceptional. Hence, the tomographic slices can be prepared in about less than 0.02 second. Besides, the cost of patient treatment as well as system maintenance is much less compared to those computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MRI) scans. This article will discuss the technology in the context of a phantom trial that was conducted at the Shahid Beheshti Medical University, Iran. The trial of the system prototype led to results that reflexted well on the procedure
