CAT scans are one of the major diagnostic tools in medical radiology.
The new approach allows to obtain images of the same quality subjecting the patient to less radiation exposure or, correspondingly, significantly enhanced quality at the current radiation levels. Currently, by the time lung cancer is detected, it is usually fatal. F. Rashid-Farrokhi, K. J. R. Liu, C. A. Berenstein and D. Walnut, IEEE Trans.
