Frequently asked questions about CT scan
What is a CT scan?
A Computed Tomography Scan is the full form of CT scan. It is also known as CAT (Computed Axial Tomography) scan. CT scan helps to visualize the internal organs with the help of X-ray beams. They provide a detailed image of the internal organs compared to the normal X-ray scan. The CT scan can be done on any body part. Your doctor can use the report of CT for different studies and for further diagnosis.
What are the different types of CT scans?
The CT scan can be either be a CECT (contrast-enhanced CT scan) or an NCCT (non-contrast CT scan) or an HRCT (high resolution computed tomography) scan. On the basis of your diagnosis, your doctor will suggest the CT scan you should take.
NCCT scan is a normal CT scan where no contrast dye is used to visualize the body parts. In the case of the CECT scan, the contrast dye will be injected into the body to get a detailed image of the body parts. The contrast dye will block the X-ray beams and appear white in the scan. The contrast CT scan is mostly done to visualize the abnormalities in the blood vessels or intestines. Know more about the CECT scan.
HRCT scan is a type of CT scan with specific techniques to enhance image resolution. This type of CT scan is generally recommended for patients with lung disease. Know more about the HRCT scan.

What is the procedure of a CT scan?
CT scan is a quick and non-invasive imaging technique done to detect and diagnose various internal disorders in the body. The CT scanner looks like a large tube with an X-ray attached to it. The lab technician will ask you to lie down on a table that slides into the CT scanner.
The X-ray that is attached to the CT machine rotates around the body part to be examined clicking several images in thin slices. You may hear loud buzzing noises due to the rotation. It is very important to remain still throughout the procedure as any movement may distort or blur the images.
The entire procedure will be monitored by a radiologist from a different room.
Generally, the entire procedure of a CT scan lasts up to 20 minutes depending on the study and the body part that is examined.
How to prepare for a CT scan?
The CT scan requires no special preparation. There is no restriction on diet and you can carry on your regular activities before the CT scan.
The lab technician will ask you to change into a gown given in the lab during the procedure. You will not be allowed to carry items with metallic contents inside the CT scan room.
In some cases, a contrast dye may be used to produce more enhanced images of the body part to be examined. The contrast dye may be given orally or injected into the vein. Your doctor will ask you to fast for a certain period and may provide some special instructions if the contrast dye is used.
Are there any risks in a CT scan?
CT scan involves limited or very few risks. As the CT scan uses X-ray beams to obtain images, you will be exposed to a limited amount of radiation which is generally harmless. But if the CT scan is done on a regular basis, there is a slight risk of developing cancer over time.
It is advised to avoid a CT scan if you are pregnant or expected to be pregnant as the radiation may sometimes harm the unborn child.
Also, there are some chances of developing allergic reactions due to the contrast dye. If you already have some kidney disorders, this might result in kidney failure. So it is very important for you to inform your doctor regarding any known allergies to contrast dye before the procedure.
How long does it take to get the CT scan results?
The radiologist analyzes the images that are stored in an electronic form and prepare the report.
Normally, the CT scan results will be available within 24 to 48 hours of the procedure.
