35
Three general types of x-ray examinations:
1.Radiography
2.Fluoroscopy
3.Computed Tomography (CT)
36
uses film or a solid-state image receptor and usually an x-ray tube mounted from the ceiling on a track that allows the tube to be moved in any direction. Such examinations provide the radiologist with fixed images.
radiography
37
is usually conducted with an x-ray tube located under the examination table. The radiologist is provided with moving images on a television monitor or flat panel display.
Fluoroscopy
38
uses a rotating x-ray source and detector array. A volume of data is acquired so that fixed images can be reconstructed in any anatomical plane coronal, sagittal, transverse, or oblique.
Computed tomography
