X-ray computerized tomographic method and apparatus with simple programmable anatomical selecting operation

摘要

In an X-ray CT (computerized tomographic) apparatus, a simple programmable anatomical selecting operation is realized. The X-ray CT apparatus comprises: selecting means for selecting at least one of imaging sorts and imaging portions with respect to a biological body under medical examination; means for programming a medical examination scheme based upon the one of imaging sorts and imaging portions of the biological body; first storage means for storing therein the programmed examination scheme; and, means for reading out the programmed examination scheme from the first storage means so as to sequentially execute functions of the programmed examination scheme.
