What is a 32 slice CT scan?

 

32 Slice refers to the number of slices or images that can be obtained per rotation of the CT scanner. This means that a 32 Slice CT scan can provide high-quality images of the body’s internal structures. Also it takes less time and with less radiation exposure than a traditional CT scan.
