A CT scan, or computerized tomography scan, is a non-invasive imaging test that uses a series of X-rays to create detailed, cross-sectional views of the inside of the body. These images are assembled by computer software, allowing your physician to view multiple layers of tissue, organs, and bone.
A full body CT scan can help detect or monitor a wide range of health conditions, including:
Before your scan, you will be given clear instructions for preparation. Comfortable, loose clothing is recommended, though you may be asked to change into a gown. Any metal objects, such as jewelry or eyeglasses, will need to be removed.
During the procedure, you will lie on a motorized table that gently moves through a tube-shaped scanner. The machine rotates around your body to capture a series of images. The process is painless and typically takes only a few minutes. In some cases, a contrast agent may be used to highlight specific areas. You might notice a warm sensation or the feeling of needing to urinate—both are normal and temporary.
Once your scan is complete, the images will be reviewed by one of our radiologists and sent to your referring doctor. Your physician will go over the findings with you and discuss any next steps, which may include additional testing or follow-up care.
