In a medical context, 'Ct' stands for what?

cot
client
count
computed tomography

The correct answer is: client

In a medical context, 'Ct' does not typically stand for 'cot' (option A), 'count' (option C), nor 'computed tomography' (option D). Although 'client' (option B) may be a term used in some medical settings, it is not a widely used abbreviation and is not commonly associated with medical scans or procedures. Instead, 'Ct' most commonly stands for 'computed tomography', a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses X-rays to generate images of internal body structures. Therefore, 'computed tomography' (option D) is the most accurate and appropriate answer in this context.
