What is an CT Chest Scan?

A CT chest scan is a specialized x-ray that creates cross-sectional images of the chest. This allows the radiologist to evaluate the lungs, heart, and great vessels in a single exam. A CT chest scan is often ordered to evaluate for pulmonary embolism, lung cancer, or infectious disease. The exam is performed by injecting contrast material into a peripheral intravenous line and then acquiring multiple x-ray images while the patient holds their breath. The exam takes approximately 10 minutes to perform. CT chest scans are generally well tolerated by patients, but some may experience anxiety or claustrophobia during the exam.

When & Why CT Chest Scan is Prescribed?

A CT chest scan is typically prescribed when a patient has signs or symptoms of a pulmonary embolism, lung cancer, or other chest-related illness. It may also be ordered if the patient’s doctor needs to evaluate for an infection, such as pneumonia. Other common indications for a CT chest scan include evaluation of trauma, such as rib fractures or lung contusions.

A CT chest scan is an invaluable tool in diagnosing a wide range of conditions and can provide detailed information not available on other imaging tests. It also allows the physician to evaluate the size and shape of organs, tissues, and blood vessels in the chest. The scan can detect diseases in the early stages, which allows for early treatment.

In summary, a CT chest scan may be prescribed when a patient has signs or symptoms of pulmonary embolism, lung cancer, other chest-related illness, infection or trauma. It is an invaluable tool in diagnosing and monitoring conditions and allows physicians to detect diseases in their early stages.
