Abdomen CT

TC Abdomen_ped

Diagnostic test that involves obtaining high-definition anatomical images of the abdomen (liver, gallbladder, bile duct, pancreas, spleen, stomach, intestines, kidneys, vascular structures, bladder, uterus and ovaries, etc.) using CT (computed tomography) equipment. These images are then studied at a workstation capable of producing two-dimensional reconstructions in different spatial planes, and also 3D (volumetric) reconstructions. Most studies require the use of iodinated contrast to improve image definition.
