What is a CT scan?
CT Scanning is a sophisticated x-ray technique producing cross sectional images formed with the aid of a computer. CT often provides more detailed information than conventional x-ray techniques.
What are CT scans used for?
A CT scan shows more details than a regular x-ray, and, unlike an x-ray, it can take pictures of areas protected or surrounded by bone. It can show ducts, blood vessels, tumours, or any of the body’s organs. A CT scan is 100 times clearer than an ordinary x-ray.
The scanner is particularly good at testing for bleeding in the brain, for aneurysms (when the wall of an artery swells up), brain tumours and brain damage. It can also find tumours and abscesses throughout the body and is used to assess types of lung disease.
