What is a CT scan and what is it for?
Computed Axial Tomography, also known CT-scan, is one of the most common diagnostic methods around. This procedure generates high-definition images of a patient's body, shown through sections (tomography) in axial planes.
It is a diagnostic technique that uses ionizing radiation (or X-rays) to obtain detailed, three-dimensional images of specific anatomical areas of the human body including the brain, bones, blood vessels, abdominal and pelvic organs, thoracic organs and the respiratory tract , vessels etc.).
At the CRTF of Cava de' Tirreni-Salerno,Italy- the following are carried out:
- CT-scan – Total Body
- Dentalscan
- Cone Beam
- Virtual CT colonoscopy
- CT angiography
- CT urography
Who is the CT scan useful for?
CT is the preferred way of identifying and diagnosing the following:
- benign and malignant tumors
- vascular diseases
- malformations
- inflammatory states (encephalitis, appendicitis, pancreatitis)
- other diseases and conditions of the musculoskeletal system.
How is a CT-scan performed?
The x-ray tube, which emits the X-rays, rotates around the immobile patient who lies on a bed that moves horizontally and passes through a circular opening that is approximately 70-cm thick. This prevents the patient from having any claustrophobic reaction.
What are the indications for a CT-scan with contrast?
CT-scan also be performed with or without the administration of a contrast medium, depending on the type of exam that needs to be carried out.
Generally, the use of a contrast medium, which can be administered either orally or intravenously, is often required when examining the brain, the abdomen, vascular districts, and the intestine. A contrast agent allows us to highlight these more complex areas and structures to better examine the characteristics of the different tissues of the organs and vessels.
How do I prepare for a contrast CT-scan?
The CT-scan without contrast requires no preparation. However, when a i.v. contrast agent is used, the patient must bring with him or her the results of the requested blood tests.
Preparation for the exam with a i.v contrast medium requires fasting for at least five hours before the scan, and staying hydrated is necessary.
What are the contraindications of a CT-scan?
As the CT-scan uses X-rays, this exam is not recommended for female patients during pregnancy, especially if the area examined involves the abdomen and/or pelvis.
In addition, CT-scans are not recommended for young patients or for those suffering from particular diseases, as these exams increase one’s exposure to ionizing radiation. Resorting to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or an ultrasound is advised as these techniques do not expose patients to ionizing radiation.
Preparation rules WITH a i.v. contrast medium
This medical service cannot be performed if the patient does not provide the results of the ordered blood tests, a medical prescription and informed consent.
The contrast medium can cause problems if the patient has eaten beforehand. If you are following a particular treatment and/or taking medication, it is always advised to speak to your doctor first as some molecules may need to be stopped, even days prior to the exam. If you suffer from illnesses such as diabetes, kidney failure or are allergic to certain drugs,food, or contrast agents, it is important to inform before the staff and your doctor.
It is recommended to stay hydrated and drink at least one liter of water before the exam so that the bladder is full at the time of the procedure.
A few days before the exam, you must undergo blood tests in order to measure the level of creatinine in the blood. If the level is inadequate, the contrast medium cannot be injected. The results must be brought with you to the appointment. It is also recommended to bring all other previous tests and examinations.
You must fast for at least six hours before the exam. It is not necessary to stop taking medications such as anti-hypertensives, as they can be taken with water.
Preparation rules WITHOUT i.v. contrast medium
There is no preparation required.
A radiologist is responsible for interpreting of CT images.
