CT Scans
CT Scans, or computed tomography, scans are useful in obtaining detailed, three-dimensional images of the affected area. It uses essentially the same technology as x-ray but with vastly more detail and precision. We may call for a CT scan for a number of reasons including:
- Evaluating a tumor
- Analyzing whether cancer cells have metastasized
- Diagnosing nasal disease
- Understanding the extent of orthopedic abnormalities (such as hip or elbow dysplasia)
- Creating 3D models to plan for complex orthopedic surgeries
- Examining cases of poly-trauma, where multiple organs or systems are damaged
