How CT Scans Help the Military
CT Scans
CT scanning machines are routinely used by
hospitals and doctors to see straight through
human tissue. Based on X-ray technology,
invented back in 1895 by a German physicist,
CT scans let doctors detect brain tumors, or
see broken bones. But recently, the U.S.
Army has been using CT scan technology to
help determine the cause of death of soldiers who died in the battlefield.
