Number of computed tomography (CT) scanners in the United Kingdom (UK) 2000-2014
The number of computed tomography (CT) scanners in the United Kingdom increased by 14.4 scanners (+2.41 percent) since the previous year. While the growth is slowing down, with 610.99 scanners, the number of CT scanners is at its peak in the observed period.
The computed tomography (short: CT) scanner can be described as a computerized x-ray machine. Instead of one single, fixed x-ray beam in the conventional x-ray machine, there is a motorized, rotating x-ray source which is processed by the machine's computer into cross-sectional images. These so-called 'slices' contain far more detailed information than conventional x-ray images.
