Early experience with the EMI scanner for study of the brain

Radiology. 1975 Aug;116(02):327-33. doi: 10.1148/116.2.327.

Abstract

Computed tomography of the head is highly accurate new radiologic technique for the evaluation of neurologic disease. Analysis of early cases indicates that the appearance produced by CT in some conditions is unique and that increasing experience allows the neuroradiologist to predict the position and nature of disease processes with greater accuracy.
