What is a CT Scan? 3D Diagnostic Imaging for Pets

Have you ever wondered what a CT scan is??

CT scan (Computerized Tomography) is a technique that uses X-rays to scan through the organ being examined, then processes the resulting data using a computer to create images. It can generate images in various planes, or even display them in 3D.

What Can a CT Scan Help Diagnose?

• Detecting tumors in various organs, such as the brain, spine, liver, spleen, pancreas, lungs, ear canal, nasal cavity, and adrenal glands, including the location and size of the tumor
• Detecting the spread of tumors to nearby lymph nodes or the lungs
• Checking for blood pooling in the brain, abdomen, or chest
• Detecting blood vessel abnormalities, such as portosystemic shunt (PSS), or structural abnormalities, such as an ectopic ureter
• Detecting bone and joint abnormalities, such as skull fractures, knee conditions, elbow conditions, torn or ruptured cruciate ligaments, or joint dislocations, among others
