Abstract
In this chapter, historical milestones of computed tomography (CT) (Sect. 16.2), recent technology with a focus on generation and detection of x-rays (Sect. 16.3), as well as image reconstruction (Sect. 16.4) are discussed. Furthermore, the chapter includes aspects of applications (Sect.16.5), dose exposure in computed tomography (Sect. 16.6), and a brief overview on special CT developments (Sect. 16.7). Since this chapter gives a review, the interested reader is referred to recent literature on computed tomography including a detailed discussion of CT technology in the references section.
