    Abstract This review will provide a brief introduction to the development of the first Computed Tomography (CT) scan, from the beginnings of x-ray imaging to the first functional CT system introduced by Godfrey Houndsfield. The principles behind photon interactions and the methods by which they can be leveraged to generate dual-energy or multi-spectral CT images are discussed. The clinical applications of these methodologies are investigated, showing the immense potential for dual-energy or multi-spectral CT to change the fields of in-vivo and non-destructive imaging for quantitative analysis of tissues and materials. Lastly the current trends of research for dual-energy and multi-spectral CT are covered, showing that the majority of instrument development is focused on photon counting detectors for mutli-spectral CT and that clinical research is dominated by validation studies for the implementation of dual-energy and multi-spectral CT.

    Abstract Hand-arm vibration (HAV), which potentially causes vibration white finger (VWF), and occupational noise are serious issues in the agricultural and forestry industries. Generally, agricultural workers operate as single-family/small businesses and thus are exempted from Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations/laws for noise and HAV otherwise applicable to other industries in general. The agricultural/forestry sectors are at increased risk as working hours are longer than a typical 8-h work shift putting them at greater risk of hearing loss. The study was conducted to assess the possible association between hearing sensitivity on combined exposure to noise and hand-arm vibration. A systematic literature review was conducted on exposure to noise and HAV in the agricultural/forestry sector and the resulting impacts on hearing. The peer-reviewed articles in English were searched with 14 search words in three databases of PubMed, Ergo Abstracts, and Web of Science without any filter for the year for fully available article text. The database literature search resulted in 72 articles. Forty-seven (47) articles met the search criteria based on the title. Abstracts were then reviewed for any relationship between hearing loss and hand-arm vibration/Raynaud's phenomenon/VWF. This left 18 articles. It was found that most agricultural workers and chainsaw workers are exposed to noise and VWF. Hearing is impacted by both noise and aging. The workers exposed to HAV and noise had greater hearing loss than non-exposed workers, possibly due to the additive effect on temporary threshold shift (TTS). It was found that VWF might be associated with vasospasm in the cochlea through autonomous vascular reflexes, digital arteries narrowing, vasoconstriction in the inner ear by noise, ischemic damage to the hair cells and increased oxygen demand, which significantly affects the correlation between VWF and hearing loss.
