Computed Tomography (CT)

CT is a noninvasive test that’s able to generate internal images of the body to help physicians accurately diagnose – or rule out – injuries or diseases. CT is often used to determine the cause of unexplained pain, dizziness or shortness of breath, or to further evaluate areas of interest found in other imaging tests. In emergency cases, CT can quickly reveal internal bleeding to help save lives. It’s a powerful tool for evaluating nearly every area of the body, including head, sinuses, chest, spine, abdomen and pelvis. And it can help physicians determine the size and location of tumors and plan the best course of treatment for many cancers.

CT technology is also used to generate a list of imaging studies, including Calcium Scoring, Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA), CT Colonography and CT Lung Cancer Screening.
