To provide a historical account of the events surrounding the development of the computed tomography scanner.
Information was obtained by interviewing people who worked with Sir Godfrey Hounsfield and Dr. James Ambrose at Atkinson Morley's Hospital in the 1970s, and from published books, articles, and several web sites, including the Nobel web site.
The computed tomography scanner was successfully developed because of the collaboration between an imaginative engineer, Godfrey Hounsfield, who created the machine, and a brilliant neuroradiologist, James Ambrose, who demonstrated its wide clinical significance.
The computed tomography scanner represents one of the most important contributions to neurosurgical practice in the past 100 years, and its development is a remarkable story of scientific endeavor.
提供围绕计算机断层扫描仪发展的相关事件的历史记述。
通过采访20世纪70年代在阿特金森·莫利医院与戈弗雷·豪斯菲尔德爵士和詹姆斯·安布罗斯博士共事的人员获取信息,并参考已出版的书籍、文章以及包括诺贝尔奖网站在内的多个网站。
计算机断层扫描仪得以成功研发,得益于富有想象力的工程师戈弗雷·豪斯菲尔德创造了这台机器,以及杰出的神经放射学家詹姆斯·安布罗斯展示了其广泛的临床意义,二者的合作。
计算机断层扫描仪是过去100年对神经外科实践最重要的贡献之一,其发展是一个关于科学努力的非凡故事。
