,The Abdomen — Kidney,Intravenous urography and ultrasound are very effective methods of imaging the kidneys. CT is not, therefore, usually needed for the initial diagnosis of renal disease. It is, however, an excellent way of demonstrating the renal and perirenal areas and is a valuable tool for elucidating problems which have not been resolved by simpler methods.

,The Abdomen — Adrenals,Although small, the adrenal glands are surrounded by retroperitoneal fat and are usually easily seen. They are one of the structures for which CT appears at the present time to be the imaging technique of first choice in a high proportion of patients.

,The Abdomen — Pancreas,CT would seem particularly well suited to delineating an organ lying, like the pancreas, mainly in the transverse axial plane. In practice, it has definite limitations, particularly in thin patients. Even so, it seems to be the most effective technique currently available.

BOGUS

Computed Tomography in Oncology,CT has a major role in the diagnosis and management of malignant disease because of its ability to delineate masses. Not only can it be used for the primary diagnosis and staging of the disease but it is also ideally suited for measuring response to treatment, for detecting relapse and for radiotherapy treatment planning.

Syntactic Networks—Kernel Memory Approachere. Although the account refers to experience based on the use of the EMI CT5005 General Purpose Scanner, it applies to other scanners of the same type. Most of the text is equally applicable to faster scanners, although these can be expected to give sharper images and can, in some patients, provide more information (figure 2.1).

Selection and Operation of Taggers diagnosis and staging in this region is more straightforward than in the thorax and abdomen. The main advantage of CT scanning for lesions of the head and neck is the ability to demonstrate inaccessible soft-tissue structures and bone detail which may be difficult to evaluate by conventional techniques.
