In this episode, I break down one of the most misunderstood concepts in CT: Raw data vs. Image data.

You'll learn what raw data is, how it's used to create reformats, MIPs, and 3D images, why raw data is automatically deleted from CT systems, and what happens when it's no longer available. I also discuss image data, storage management, and important tips for preventing accidental deletion of studies.

Whether you're a new CT technologist or looking to strengthen your CT fundamentals, this episode provides a simple explanation of how scan data is acquired, stored, and reconstructed.

Topics Covered:
• Raw Data vs. Image Data
• CT Reconstructions and 3D Imaging
• CT Storage Management
• Common CT Workflow Considerations
• CT Education for New Technologists
