Automatic measurement of slice thickness in CT images of a Siemens phantom.

This study aims to develop a program in Python language for automatic measurement of slice thickness in computed tomography (CT) images of a Siemens phantom with different values of slice thickness, field of view (FOV), and pitch. A Siemens phantom was scanned using a Siemens 64-slice Somatom Perspective CT scanner with various slice thicknesses (i.e.
