CT SCAN

A CT scan is a noninvasive, painless medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions.

CT scanning uses special x-ray equipment to produce multiple pictures of the inside of the body and a computer to join them together in cross-sectional views of the area being studied. The images can then be examined by a radiologist for interpretation.

CT scans of internal organs, bone, soft tissue, and blood vessels provide greater clarity than conventional x-ray exams.
