64-slice CT scan technology transmits images by rotating x-ray detectors around your body. While the detectors are rotating, you will lay on a specially designed table that moves through a gantry. Standard CT scanners have 1, 4, or 16 rows of detectors.
The 64-slice CT Scan operates 4-64 times faster than other standard CT scanners. The 64-slice CT scanners have definite clinical advantages that improve the precision of diagnosis and you are also more comfortable during the scan process. The most significant impact of the 64-slice CT scan is that it can acquire clear images of the organs in multiple slices in rapid sequence.
