total scan time.

Slice Thickness x Slice Count

They measure the transmission of a thin beam (1-10 mm) of x-rays through a full CT of the body. The image of that section is taken from different angles, and this allows to retrieve the information on the dept

calculate the attenuation coefficient corresponding to the volume of irradiated tissue by the application of the general formula of absorption of the x-rays in the field

A cyclotron is a type of particle accelerator which repeatedly propels a beam of charged particles (protons) in a circular path. Medical radioisotopes are made from non-radioactive materials (stable isotopes) which are bombarded by these protons

(named the Enhanced Permeability and Retention [EPR] effect) works very well for tumors. As tumor mass grows rapidly,
