FAQs

What structures are evaluated during the examination?

Depending on the scan coverage, it may evaluate the pelvic bones, acetabulum, femoral heads, hip joints, sacroiliac joints, pubic bones, and surrounding bony structures.

Can NCCT Pelvis with Hip Joints detect fractures?

Yes. CT provides detailed images of bone and is particularly useful for detecting complex pelvic, acetabular, and hip fractures, including fractures that may be difficult to assess on plain X-rays.

Is NCCT Pelvis with Hip Joints useful after trauma?

Yes. It is commonly used when there is suspected pelvic or hip fracture following falls, road accidents, or other significant trauma, particularly when detailed assessment is required.

Can the scan help with orthopedic surgical planning?

Yes. High-resolution CT images and, when required, multiplanar or 3D reconstructions can provide detailed information about pelvic and hip anatomy and help with treatment or surgical planning.

Will I need an MRI after the CT scan?

Depending on the symptoms and findings, your doctor may recommend MRI for a more detailed assessment of cartilage, muscles, tendons, ligaments, bone marrow, and other soft tissues.
