Experiences in the use of ACTA scanner (type 0100) Part 1. Consideration on CT scanner

As we have had the opportunity to use the ACTA scanner (type 0100) set in June, 1976 at the hospital affiliated to Okayama University, we describe here our experiences with it and introduce an outline of the CT apparatus as well as its usefulness.
