DALLAS, May 13 – Electron beam computed tomography (EBCT) scans can help doctors predict whether otherwise-healthy people with risk factors such as high blood pressure or elevated cholesterol ...

We used electron-beam computed tomography to screen for the presence of coronary-artery calcification in 65 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (mean [±SD] age, 40.3±11.6 years) and 69 ...

Scientists have used a transmission electron microscope to record almost 3500 images in 3.5 seconds for the reconstruction of a 3D electron tomogram. Previously, 10 to 60 minutes and a ten-fold ...

Electron Beam Computed Tomography (EBCT) Length of exam: Less than 10 minutes for artery scans; 10-20 minutes for CT angiography. Cost: $400 to $500 for artery scans; $1,200 to $1,700 for CT ...

Electron beam computed tomography (CT) has no role in rural hospitals. Few rural hospitals have more than one multislice CT scanner. Positron emission tomography (PET) ...

Electron beam computed tomography (EBT) allows to scan in 50 msec at the shortest without cardiac motion artifact or the influence of lungs or bones.

Computed tomography (CT) scanning provides images of sections of the body (slices) using special X ray equipment and sophisticated computers. ... The highest dose is at the body surface where the beam ...
