    This makes CT scan the most appropriate term, which is used by radiologists in common vernacular as well as in textbooks and scientific papers. [218] [219] [220] In Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), computed axial tomography was used from 1977 to 1979, but the current indexing explicitly includes X-ray in the title. [221]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_beam_computed...

    Electron beam computed tomography (EBCT) is a fifth generation computed tomography (CT) scanner in which the X-ray tube is not mechanically spun in order to rotate the source of X-ray photons. This different design was explicitly developed to better image heart structures that never stop moving, performing a complete cycle of movement with each ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photon-counting_computed...

    As an example, each mm 2 of a CT detector may receive several hundred million photon interactions per second during a scan. [ 4 ] To avoid saturation in areas where little material is present between the X-ray source and the detector, the pulse resolving time must be small compared to the average time between photon interactions in a pixel.
