[Godfrey N. Hounsfield and his influence on radiology].

W Bautz1, W Kalender.   

Abstract

On August 12, 2004 Sir Godfrey N. Hounsfield died at the age of 84 years. Computed tomography, which he developed, has been the most important invention in radiology since the discovery of X-rays; it revolutionized the medical diagnostic undisputedly. The essay gives an insight into the personality and the achievments of G. N. Hounsfield as well as the evolution of computed tomography of the classical sequential scanning via single to the current multislice spiral technique. The perspectives of computed tomography are shown.
