    Hyper means more and hypo means less, so hypodense means less dense than average. CT scans are literally just shades of grey based on how dense the tissue is when an x-ray tries to travel through it. Air is least dense and is black. Fat and water are hypodense and dark grey. Bone is hyperdense and bright white.
