description A CT scanner and method are designed to scan a preselected portion of a patient's lower abdomen. The scanner may include a source and detector array designed to rotate about a rotation axis oriented substantially parallel to or coincident with the hips of the a patient so that a scanning plane does not pass through the patient's pelvic bones Higher-resolution image CT images can be achieved by using a detector array of the type used for digital radiography. The presence of prostatic cancer can be detected by first injecting the patient with a material including a high contrast material for X-ray imaging and a material for binding the high contrast material to a specific biological site if present in the preselected portion of the lower abdomen of the patient; and generating a CT image of the preselected portion of the lower abdomen.
