can body scanners detect disease
Full body scanning can detect heart, lung, musculoskeletal, endocrine, and prostate and ovarian disease as well as tumors, aneurysms, osteoporosis, hernias, and kidney and gall stones. Full body scanning is performed on a multislice computed tomography (CT) scanner in only 30 seconds. This study provides both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) images of all types of tissue, allowing for more accurate detection of various cancers and diseases before symptoms occur.
CT scans can be used to detect cysts or infections in the body. They can also identify the bone structures within the body and can accurately measure the density of bone. A CT scan is often used to quickly inspect a patient after an accident in order to identify traumatic internal injuries.
