FAQs

Can NCCT Whole Spine detect fractures?

Yes. CT provides detailed visualization of bone and is particularly useful for detecting and assessing vertebral fractures, including complex fractures that may not be clearly demonstrated on plain X-rays.

Is NCCT Whole Spine useful after trauma?

Yes. It may be recommended after significant accidents, falls, or other trauma when spinal injury or fracture is suspected.

Do I need any preparation before NCCT Whole Spine?

Usually, no special preparation is required because intravenous contrast is not used. You may be asked to remove jewellery, belts, or other metallic objects that could interfere with the images.

Will I need an MRI after NCCT Whole Spine?

Depending on the findings and symptoms, your doctor may recommend MRI for more detailed evaluation of the spinal cord, discs, nerves, ligaments, or other soft tissues.
