Multislice CT SCAN

What is a CT scan?

Computed tomography (CT or CAT scan) is a scanning technique used to create cross-sectional images of the body. A fast, painless, noninvasive and accurate method, CT scanning can reveal internal injuries and a variety of diseases and conditions.

Doctors must be notified in case of a patient’s pregnancy, recent illnesses, medical conditions, medications and allergies.

CT Scan is helpful for the following

  • Gives detailed images of bone, soft tissue and blood vessels all at once
  • Cost-effective imaging tool for various clinical problems
  • Faster Imaging than MRI
  • Even if the patient has an implanted device, CT scans can be performed
  • CT scans can diagnose damaged bone and joint problems.
  • CT scans Quickly recognise injuries to the lungs, liver, heart, and vessels, kidneys, spleen, and other internal organs in cases of trauma and other diseases
  • Problems with blood flow, stroke, and cancer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Two hours of fasting is required with normal renal function test. In abdomen  studies, oral contrast is given an hour before the scan. Before setting up an appointment please ask the scan center for more information. 

Yes, but the chances are minimal. It has the same risk for reaction as any medication does, which is why we use contrast screening forms to check for possible patients who are at risk of having reaction. Most reactions are mild but in some rare cases, an allergic reaction can be serious and life threatening. In such cases patients are shifted to nearest hospital.

Sometime the needs for contrast is more apparent when the doctors see the area being scanned and realize they need to do a contrast study to make more accurate diagnosis. This happens sometimes and patients are told during the  scan that contrast needs to be administered.

After the CT scan is completed you may leave and go about your normal routines with no restrictions. If you have received contrast you should drink plenty of liquids for next 24 hours.

If you are pregnant or think you might be pregnant you should NOT undergo CT scan or any form of exam that involves X-ray. Pregnant women or those who think may be pregnant should immediately inform the doctor.
