Scanning unit for model CT5005 CT scanner
Scanning unit for model CT5005 CT scanner made by EMI Medical Ltd
CT (computated tomography) Body scanner, model CT5005, by EMI Medical Ltd, 1975, the first production model to be used in Europe, first at Manchester University and subsequently at the Hope Hospital, Salford
The EMI CT5005 scanner was installed in the University Department of Diagnostic Radiology in March 1976 at a cost of £250,000, provided by the regional health authority. Additional elements to the equipment, such as an independent viewing centre, were installed by October of the same year. The scanner was operated under Isherwood's direction. The CT5005 took twenty seconds to take one scan and took two hundred seconds to process a single slice. The whole body scanner could image parts of the body where conventional X-ray examination was previously extremely difficult and often inconclusive. It also enabled patients to be investigated as outpatients for conditions which previously involved admission to hospital for examination.
