Radiology CT scan

Senior Airman Sean McCarty and Airman 1st Class Natisha Haynie, 2nd Medical Support Squadron radiology computed tomography technologists, care for a patient after a CT exam of her abdomen and pelvis area. A CT scan provides a more in-depth look at an area than an X-ray. The CT provides a cross-sectional view, like bread slices, rather than an X-ray's two-dimensional view.
