> ultrasound is not CT

They're using "CT" in its literal sense: tomography*, using computers. In this case, ultrasound is the penetrating wave rather than x-ray. It is of course a very different thing than what the medical world knows as "CT" today.

The problem is the other way around. That we somehow accepted that X-Rays/Röntgen is the only way to do CT.
