What is the difference between tomography and ct

Working principle is different, the scope of application is different.

1, tomography refers to the detector and X-ray source rotated around the patient to obtain continuous two-dimensional images, and then through these images to build three-dimensional models. ct is a tomography specific application, the use of X-ray and computer technology combined, through the collection of a number of two-dimensional slices of the image, and through computer processing to restore the three-dimensional structure of the human body. .

2. Tomography is typically used to capture detailed images of a specific area, such as the head, chest, or a limb, etc. CT is more widely used to image the entire body, providing a more comprehensive and detailed view of the human anatomy.
