Research Notes on Abdominal CT Scan Images
A CT scan is a diagnostic procedure that provides detailed images of any part of the body. The images provided by this procedure are more thorough than those received from an x-ray.1 A CT scan of the abdomen can help diagnose disorders such as appendicitis, lymphoma, and abdominal aortic aneurysms.2
Fast Facts:
- Notify your health care provider if you are pregnant since radiation from the procedure can cause birth defects.1
- There may be a risk of an allergic reaction if contrast dye is used.1
- A mild sedative may be needed if you are claustrophobic.1
- Listed below are links to various images of CT scans of the abdomen.
