In this observational, correlational and cross-sectional study, we conducted multiple regression analyses to investigate the relationship between CT utilization rates and mortality. In addition, we estimated the annual net profits from CT to show the profitability of introducing a CT system in each Japanese prefecture.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>We conducted a multiple regression analysis to investigate correlations between CT utilization rates and mortality from each disease adjusted for the population density, number of doctors, as well as transportation time to the medical institution.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>The results of multiple regression analysis showed that traffic accident mortality was related to CT utilization rate and population density.
