Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The white and gray matter of the brain can be clearly differentiated by computed tomography (CT). The differentiation is enhanced by the administration of contrast material. Without contrast material, the mean attenuation number of the white matter was 29 units, of the gray matter, 35 units. The effective low contrast resolving power of CT scanners can be clinically evaluated by comparing their ability to differentiate the white and gray matter of the brain. |
