FAQs

What is the difference between dual-phase and triple-phase CT?

A dual-phase CT commonly includes two post-contrast phases, such as the arterial and portal venous phases. A triple-phase CT generally includes an additional delayed phase when clinically required. The exact phases and timing may vary according to the suspected condition and imaging protocol.

Can CECT Upper Abdomen Dual/Triple Phase detect liver tumors?

Yes. Multiphasic CT can help detect and characterize liver lesions, including selected primary liver tumors and metastases. In appropriate patients, the different enhancement patterns across phases provide important diagnostic information.

Should I inform the radiology team about allergies or previous contrast reactions?

Yes. Inform the medical team about previous reactions to iodinated contrast, kidney disease, allergies, diabetes, thyroid disease, pregnancy, and other relevant medical conditions before the examination.
