Service Providers for Ct Scan of Right Heel (Calcaneum)
A CT scan of the right heel (calcaneum) is used to assess fractures, infections, tumors, or other abnormalities in the heel bone. During the procedure, you will lie on a table while the scanner takes detailed cross-sectional images of the calcaneus (heel bone) and surrounding soft tissues. Preparation includes removing any metal objects like jewelry or clothing with zippers. The procedure is painless, though contrast dye may be used to enhance image clarity. Risks include allergic reactions to contrast dye and radiation exposure. Results are interpreted by analyzing the images for fractures, arthritis, or other conditions. Afterward, you can resume normal activities.
