What is a CT Scan?

Computed tomography, or CT scanning, is a potent medical imaging method that produces finely detailed cross-sectional pictures of the body's interior organs. With the use of advanced computer processing and X-ray technologies, CT scans provide a thorough picture that helps medical personnel accurately identify and assess a variety of medical disorders.

A revolving X-ray equipment takes several pictures at various angles to create detailed cross-sectional slices during a CT scan. A computer then uses these slices to assemble a three-dimensional image that provides a detailed analysis of the area of interest. The outcome is a high-resolution image that is not possible with conventional X-rays. CT scans are helpful in the diagnosis of a number of illnesses, such as vascular disease, cancers, abnormalities of the internal organs, and bones and joints illnesses as well as wounds. Because of its adaptability, CT technology is a vital tool in contemporary healthcare, enabling comprehensive evaluations across a wide range of medical specializations. The unique quality of CT scans is their rapid acquisition of finely detailed pictures, which makes them very helpful in emergency scenarios. Diagnostic medicine requires CT scans because of their non-invasiveness and capacity to produce sharp images of bone and soft tissue structures.

At Surya Hospitals, we make the most of CT scan technology to give our patients rapid and reliable diagnostic information. We are dedicated to providing every person with the comfort and care they deserve throughout the CT Scan procedure, in addition to being the best in technology. By means of this cutting-edge imaging technique, we seek to provide a clearer route to well-being by demystifying health-related issues.

What are the indications of a CT Scan?

Computed tomography scans, or CT scans, are incredibly useful diagnostic instruments that are essential for evaluating a wide range of illnesses. Whether or not to propose a CT scan depends on the particular signs that a patient's health status presents. The following are typical situations where a CT scan might be necessary:

Injuries and Trauma
Doubting tumours or unusual growth
Bone and Joint Disorders
Identifying orthopedic diseases such as arthritis and fractures.
Examining blood vessels for problems that could affect blood flow
Internal Organ Evaluation
Infections or Inflammation
Assessment of the brain and spinal cord to diagnose neurological disorders.
Preoperative Planning

It's crucial to remember that medical experts decide whether to perform a CT scan depending on each patient's unique medical history and symptoms. Our goal at Surya Hospitals is to make sure that CT scans are only advised when they would help obtain precise diagnoses and individualized treatment plans.

What are the benefits of a CT Scan?

CT scans provide precise images of organs, tissues, and bones, allowing our radiologists to discover anomalies, tumours, and other diseases. Infections, fractures, and other diseases can be diagnosed with excellent accuracy.
CT scans are a versatile imaging modality since they may be used to evaluate numerous regions of the body, including the head, chest, belly, pelvis, and extremities.
CT scans are relatively quick compared to other imaging procedures, reducing patient discomfort and the need for multiple imaging sessions.
CT scans are non-invasive, which means they do not require any surgical incisions. The patient instead lies on a surface that glides through the scanner, taking photos from various perspectives.
CT scans are painless, and most patients have no discomfort during the process.
Our CT scanners use low-dose radiation, which ensures patient safety while retaining outstanding image quality. Our radiology team is cautious about minimizing radiation exposure, especially in vulnerable populations.

Preparation

The procedure of getting ready for a CT scan is simple, and at Surya Hospitals, we want to make it go as smoothly as possible for your comfort. This short guide will help you get ready for your next CT scan:

Information and Consultation: You might meet with your healthcare practitioner before your CT scan. This is your chance to talk about any current medical issues, allergies, or worries you may have. Also, the directions your provider gives you will be customized to meet your needs.
Clothes and Comfort: Wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothing free of metal buttons or zippers as these can obstruct the imaging process. For the scan, you might be required to change into a hospital gown.
Contrast material (if required): You can employ contrast material, which is a specific dye, to make some tissues or blood vessels more visible. Your healthcare professional will give you detailed instructions, including whether you need to fast before the procedure, and whether contrast is needed.
Metal and Individual Things: Take off all metal items, including hairpins, watches, and jewellery, as these may obstruct the CT scan. Valuables should be left at home or with a partner while the treatment is being done.
Let the technologist know: Share with the CT technologist any allergies you may have, current medications you are taking, or pre-existing medical issues. This guarantees a customized and safe experience.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: It is important to let the CT technologist and your healthcare provider know if you are pregnant or nursing, since they may need to take extra measures.
Carefully Follow Any Instructions: It's important to follow any instructions that your healthcare provider may have given you. If contrast material is employed, this can entail dietary limitations like fasting.
Our committed staff at Surya Hospitals is here to help you at every stage of your CT scan experience, making sure you feel informed and supported. Our top priorities are your comfort and well-being, and you can help ensure a seamless and productive CT scan experience by adhering to these easy preparation procedures.
