Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Interslice scatter refers to the scattering of radiation from one slice to the adjacent slices in a CT image. This can cause a loss of image contrast and can also contribute to increased radiation dose to the patient. Forward scatter refers to the scattering of radiation in the direction of the detector, while backscatter refers to the scattering of radiation back towards the source. Side scatter refers to scatter that occurs perpendicular to the primary beam direction.
