How do CT scans differ from other diagnostic tests?
Unlike X-rays, CT has the ability to image a combination of soft tissue, bone and blood vessels. This capability proves very useful in evaluating the chest and the abdomen, making the modality a preferred method for diagnosing cancers such as lung, liver and pancreatic, among others. We can view any part of the body with CT. Our radiologists interpret the 2-Dimensional cross-sectional images that represent slices of the patient’s body. 3D reconstruction is also done. CT can help diagnose cancers, tumors, and a host of other diseases and injuries.
