Some radiologists use the term “CAT” more often than using “CT”. We know that you know CAT as “Computed Axial Tomography” or “Computerized Axial Tomography”, but this picture demonstrates otherwise…
11. That CT *GLOW* Up
We’d be lying if we said we didn’t hope this would happen to us after our CT scans. I couldn’t help but think about all the money I could save on electricity. Think about all the electricity one could save…also, this would take being “lit” to another level!
