Additional information
This section is only available in English. It may contain important information that you should check with your preferred translation tool.
Computed Tomography uses x-rays to take images inside the body. It is similar to a plain x-ray however it takes lots of pictures of a section (cross sections) of your body which are then made into 3D images.
You may be asked to drink a special liquid or be given an injection of x-ray dye for your scan.
The scanner has a round opening in the centre and a flat bed for you to lie on. While you are lying on the bed, it will slowly move you into the opening where the pictures are taken. The movement is controlled by the CT staff.
Multi-slice CT scans are reliable, fast and non-invasive. They can be used to show body parts in detail such as the brain, lungs, bones, abdominal organs and blood vessels.
Payment options: fees apply, bulk billing available for eligible patients.
