Service Providers for Spiral CT Scan of Chest (HRCT)
A Spiral CT Scan of the Chest (HRCT) is a specialized imaging technique used to obtain detailed, high-resolution images of the lungs and chest structures. It is particularly effective in diagnosing lung diseases such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, interstitial lung disease, and lung cancer. During the procedure, you lie on a table while the CT scanner rotates around your chest, capturing multiple images. If contrast material is required, it is injected into a vein. There is minimal preparation, such as removing jewelry and clothing above the waist. Risks include radiation exposure and potential allergic reactions to the contrast. Results help identify lung abnormalities and guide treatment decisions.
