What is CT Scan

A CT scan, or computed tomography scan, is a type of diagnostic imaging procedure that uses a combination of X-rays and computer technology to create detailed images of the body, including the bones, blood vessels, and soft tissues.

Uses of CT Scans

CT scans have become an indispensable tool in the field of medicine. They offer an accurate, and non-invasive method of diagnosing a variety of health conditions. CT scans are also qucik as they typically takes between 5 and 30 minutes, depending on the area of the body being scanned. The high-resolution images provided by a CT scan can help doctors detect abnormalities such as tumors, fractures, and infections, evaluate the extent of diseases like cancer, guide surgical procedures, and assess the effectiveness of certain treatments.
