CT scans vs X-rays
Benefits of CT Scan:
- CT scans are of much higher resolution. Compared to X-rays, they provide more detailed information to radiologists. As a result, CT is a more reliable tool in making a clear diagnosis.
- A quick procedure, CT scan relatively involves a much lower exposure to radiation. This method also provides radiologists with high-quality images that reveal the smallest of abnormalities
Common Contraindication
- Pregnancy. As the fetus is highly sensitive to radiation. Please be sure to inform the imaging center staff if you are pregnant.
- A history of a prior allergic reaction to intravenous contrast dye. This demands caution to avoid a repeat episode. An antihistamine medication is recommended before the procedure to prevent a reaction.
