A CT Scan (sometimes called a CAT scan) is a painless and a non-invasive medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions. CT uses a very thin special x-ray beam to produce detailed, cross sectional views of the body part being studied. The images can be examined digitally or via print. CT is often a preferred method of diagnosing causes of pain due to trauma, illness, organ injuries and abnormalities and many different forms of cancer. CT scans of the internal organs, bone, blood vessels and soft tissue provide greater clarity than conventional x-ray exams.

  • Brain
  • Sinuses
  • Facial Bones
