- 1斷層掃描技術(最常見於「電腦斷層掃描」CT scan)
Tomography is a way of taking pictures of the inside of the body (or another object) in thin 'slices,' a bit like cutting a of bread and looking at each slice one at a time. Doctors use special machines - X-rays, sound , or other methods - to build these slice-by-slice pictures without cutting the body open. You've probably heard of it already: a 'CT scan' stands for 'computed tomography.'
組成From Greek 'tomos' (a cut or slice) + '-graphy' (writing or recording, i.e. making a picture). Tomography means 'recording in slices.'
