Computed Tomography (CT) Scan

A Computed Tomography (CT) scan is an advanced medical imaging technique that combines multiple X-ray images taken from different angles to create detailed cross-sectional views of the body. Unlike traditional X-rays, CT scans provide more comprehensive and precise images of bones, organs, blood vessels, and soft tissues.

What is it useful for?
CT scans are widely used to diagnose a variety of conditions including traumatic injuries, tumors, infections, vascular diseases, and internal bleeding. It is particularly valuable in emergency situations to quickly assess complex fractures, brain injuries, strokes, and chest or abdominal pain. CT imaging also assists in planning surgeries, guiding biopsies, and monitoring treatment progress.

Who needs a CT scan?
Patients with unexplained pain, injuries from accidents, suspected tumors, or symptoms like persistent headaches, chest pain, or abdominal discomfort may be recommended a CT scan. It is also beneficial for cancer patients to detect the spread of disease and assess response to therapies. Doctors rely on CT scans for accurate and fast diagnosis to make informed treatment decisions.
