Notes
- 1.
CT (Computed Tomography) means making use of precise X-rays, γ-rays and ultrasonic waves emitted by ultrasensitive detectors to produce cross-sectional (tomographic) images of specific areas of the human body. CT can be used for diagnosis of many diseases.
- 2.
MRT (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is another clinical imaging technique. MRT yields more diagnostic information than other medical imaging techniques, with great superiority in diagnosing diseases.
- 3.
The shape-memory alloy refers to an alloy that returns to its original shape when heated after undergoing deformations at low temperatures. In this sense, the shape-memory alloy has memory effect.
