Computed Tomography Scan (CT Scan)

CT scan department at Poona Hospital & Research Centre is well equipped with an ultramodern CT scanner. The department provides accurate CT scan reports by our skilled and experienced team of radiologists. It offers services 24 X 7.

Scope

The department has the following imaging modality:

  • Computed Tomography Scan (CT scan): The department is equipped with a state-of-the-art VCT 64 CT scanner. The advanced machine allows for performing a wide variety of CT scan procedures with a high degree of diagnostic accuracy.
Services
  • Brain (Plain)-CT scanning combines special x-ray equipment with sophisticated computers to produce multiple sliced images of organs.
  • Joints (Plain)- A computed tomography (CT) scan of the joints is an imaging method that uses x-rays to create detailed pictures of the Bone Joints.
  • Abdomen- A non-invasive painless radiological test to evaluate many disorders of the abdomen.
  • Angiography- The coronary angiography is a painless procedure that takes about 10 minutes it is usually done to check blood vessels. The process is similar to taking an x-ray.
  • Pulmonary- Clinical indications for CT pulmonary angiography have and continue to evolve based on research and new imaging.
  • CT Myelography- Myelography uses a real-time X-ray called fluoroscopy and an injection of contrast material to evaluate the spinal cord.
  • CT Maxilla- The jaw comprises two bony structures: the mandible and the maxilla. Their curved configuration makes the imaging procedure seemingly difficult.
  • CT Mandible- The mandible is the lower jaw. The maxilla is the upper jaw. CT scans use X-ray technology and advanced computer analysis to create detailed pictures of the body. A CT of the mandible/maxilla can help a physician assess any injury, infection, or other abnormalities.
  • Neck- CT of the neck is a study of the neck region from the skull base to the lung apices and spine airway.
  • Orbit CT scan- A computed tomography (CT) scan of the orbit is an imaging method that uses x-rays to create detailed pictures of eye sockets also known as orbits.
  • Thorax (Chest)- CT scanning sometimes also known as CAT scanning is a non-invasive medical process that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions.
  • 3D CT Scan- 3D CT is an imaging technique that uses X-ray equipment to obtain cross-sectional images of the body. CT image has different pixel densities.
FAQ
1) What is a CT scan?
A CT (Computed Tomography) scan is an imaging technique that uses X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images of the body.
2) How long does a CT scan take?
Most CT scans take 10–30 minutes, depending on the area being examined and whether contrast dye is used.
3) Is a CT scan safe?
Yes, CT scans are generally safe, but they involve exposure to low doses of radiation. Doctors ensure the benefits outweigh the risks.
4) Do I need to prepare for a CT scan?
Preparation depends on the type of scan; some require fasting or contrast dye, while others need no special preparation.
5) Can I have a CT scan if I'm pregnant?
Pregnant women should avoid CT scans unless absolutely necessary, as radiation may affect the baby.
