Why CT Face with Neck Contrast is Important
-
Detailed Imaging: Unlike regular X-rays, a CT scan with contrast offers precise, cross-sectional images of soft tissues, bones, and blood vessels.
-
Early Detection: Helps in identifying tumors, infections, or abnormalities at an early stage, enabling timely treatment.
-
Guided Treatment: Assists surgeons and doctors in planning complex procedures like facial reconstruction or tumor removal.
-
Safe and Non-Invasive: Modern CT scans are quick, non-invasive, and highly accurate with minimal discomfort.
How It Works
During the procedure, a contrast dye is injected into your vein. This dye enhances the visibility of certain structures on the CT images, especially blood vessels and tumors. You will lie on a scanning table that moves through a donut-shaped machine, which captures high-resolution images from multiple angles.
The entire procedure usually takes 15–30 minutes, and the results are interpreted by a radiologist and shared with your doctor.
