Whole body scanners: a comparison between the IGE 8800 and 9800.

In a previous paper a comparison was made between a second generation and a third generation whole body scanner--the International General Electric CT/T 8800 (the definition of generation being the type of geometry used within the system). The author now assesses the IGE 9800 system, comparing it with the 8800 and high-lighting improvements in the technical features of the newer system.
