Abstract

The three study groups used the same CT systems during the investigation period : the EMI Mark I head scanner from 1975 until June 1977 and the EMI CT 1010 head scanner from the middle of 1977, with the Diagnostic Enhancement Package since March 1980. Special studies of the base of the skull were performed with an EMI CT 5005 body scanner (Department of Radiology, Klinikum Steglitz, Free Universityof Berlin).
