A river begins at a source (or more often several sources), follows a path called a course, and ends at a mouth or mouths. The water in a river is usually confined to a channel, made up of a stream bed between banks. In larger rivers there is often also a wider floodplain shaped by flood-waters over-topping the channel.
A 'computerized tomography' (CT) (or 'computerized axial tomography' (CAT) scan) uses a computer that takes data from several X-ray images of structures inside a human's or animal's body and converts them into pictures on a monitor.
Computed Tomography (CT), also commonly referred to as a CAT scan, is a medical imaging method that combines multiple X-ray projections taken from different angles to produce detailed cross-sectional images of areas inside the body.
