Computed tomography in Dnipro

Advantages of computed tomography

“ON Clinic Dnipro” carries out computed tomography using a computed tomography machine SOMATOM go.Up. The advantages of performing CT with SOMATOM go.Up apparatus include the following:

• low radiation exposure;
• scanning, which reduces the need for repeated examinations;
• high quality angiography (X-ray examination of blood vessels).

Preparation for computed tomography

Before CT, it is necessary to provide the radiologist with the necessary clinical information, including the data of previous examinations and the contact details of the doctor who issued the referral for diagnostics. It is recommended to wear loose clothing for examination without metal items and inserts. 

Before CT of thoracic organs, it is necessary to take off chains from the neck and piercing from the chest area. Before examination with intravenous contrast agent administration, food should not be taken 2 hours before the examination, and in case of colonography - 4 hours before the examination.

When examining the abdominal organs and small pelvis, you should drink 1-1.5 liters of still water in portions within 1-1.5 hours before the CT. When examining bones, soft tissues, spine, head, neck, and thoracic cavity, special preparation for CT is usually not required.
