Foundations Of CT Functional Imaging

This module introduces CT functional imaging and explains how dynamic acquisitions and advanced analysis provide information about perfusion ventilation and organ function. It describes techniques such as CT perfusion for brain and tumor assessment and dual energy methods for lung perfusion. The content highlights potential roles in stroke oncology and cardiology. It also explains concerns about dose and the need for careful protocol design. The module emphasizes that technologists must understand timing contrast administration and motion control. By studying CT functional imaging students can develop term papers on physiologic imaging and therapy planning.
