A computerized tomography scan, also called a CT scan, is a type of imaging that uses X-ray techniques to create detailed images of the body. It then uses a computer to create cross-sectional images, also called slices, of the bones, blood vessels, and soft tissues inside the body.
CT scan images show more detail than plain X-rays do. These high-resolution images help doctors diagnose various conditions more accurately and monitor the effectiveness of treatments. CT scans are quick, painless, and often completed within a few minutes, making them ideal in emergency situations.
