CT stands for Computed Tomography, and uses a computer to interpret information from x-ray image to create a two or three dimensional image. The patient lies on a bed inside a donut-shaped x-ray machine while the x-ray tube circles around taking a series of images. A computer combines the images, stacking them to create 2-D or 3-D pictures.
