What can CT SCAN ABDOMEN ORAL + IV CONTRAST help detect?

The scan helps diagnose appendicitis, obstruction, abscesses, tumors, bleeding, and organ injury. Abnormal results stem from inflammation, infection, stones, trauma, or tumors. A family history of abdominal cancers or inherited bowel disease may make this imaging more important.

What do CT SCAN ABDOMEN ORAL + IV CONTRAST results mean?

The FAQs below cover what this scan can and cannot show.

How often should CT SCAN ABDOMEN ORAL + IV CONTRAST be repeated?
