Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Computerized axial tomography, also known as a CT scan, uses X-rays to create detailed images of the inside of the body. The X-rays pass through the body and are detected by a specialized scanner, which creates cross-sectional images that can be used to diagnose medical conditions. Microwaves and infrared rays are not used in CT scans, and while gamma rays have medical uses, they are not used in CT scans.
