Cardiac CT scan

This is an informational video about the process of undergoing a CT scan

Twenty third scan completed, brilliant staff, Phlebotomist was spot on, first go, no problems with getting a cannula in. Phantom 4 is exagerating 1/16 in diameter and 2 inches long is nearer the mark. Just got to wait for the results now. Thoroughly recommend the staff at Derriford Hospitial. Even had the same scanner as on the video.

Very interesting. Is there any reason you cannot drive after the scan?

[KingWhiskers]

Going for my twenty third CT Scan tomorrow, 28th April 2015. Nothing to it really, The only difficult thing is getting a cannula (venflon) installed in you as some people like me have veins that are hard to find.
A little tip, keep your hands and arms nice and warm as it helps with the finding of the vein.

Have much radiation is a patient subjected to during an average CT scan?
And what exactly is contained in the x-ray dye? Anything that has those kind of side effects must not be good for the body.

I have a question regarding when a CT scan is performed. Is it necessary for the gantry to rotate around the body to get the images required. or can your body be scanned by just having the body be moved back and forth into the machine while holding your breath .Also is there a light that comes on.
