Spiral CT, also known as helical CT, is a type of computed tomography (CT) imaging that uses a continuous spiral motion of the X-ray tube and detector to acquire data. This technique allows for faster imaging and improved image quality compared to conventional CT. It also allows for the acquisition of multiple slices in a single rotation, which can be used to create 3D images. Spiral CT is used in a variety of medical applications, including diagnosis of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and trauma. It is also used for imaging of the lungs, abdomen, and pelvis. The spiral CT market is highly competitive, with a number of companies offering a range of products. Major players in the market include GE Healthcare, Philips Healthcare, Siemens Healthineers, Canon Medical Systems, Hitachi Medical Systems, and Shimadzu Corporation. Show Less Read more
