@Sarah_Vgb, one of our PhD students, did a fantastic job in explaining what contrast-enhanced CT (CE-CT) is all about! Watch the video below to learn the basics of contrast agents and their use in CE-CT 🦴
Wat hebben beenmerg, de lever & een tumor gemeen? Ze bestaan uit zgn 'zacht' #weefsel dat zich niet gemakkelijk via CT-scan laat visualiseren. @Sarah_Vgb @KU_Leuven @UCLouvain_be ontwikkelt nieuwe #contraststoffen om zacht weefsel 'in beeld te brengen' 🎥👉wetenschapuitgedokterd.be/we…
