Going beyond these anatomic areas produces images that are less than ideal clinical quality. The EBCT machine was inherently designed to only take images of the heart. Multi Slice CT is designed as a general-purpose diagnostic scanner that excels in all diagnostic areas from head (neuro), lung, cardiac, body, orthopedic, and vascular. Multi Slice CT scans has a proven history.
