Computed tomography «Whole Body»
Learn all about your health in an hour!
X-ray layer-by-layer screening of the «whole body» on the latest apparatus is presented in our clinic at the best price. It includes an examination of the chest, abdominal organs, and small pelvis with intravenous administration of contrast medium.
Why is this needed?
The whole body CT allows you to get an analysis of the state of internal organs - quickly and reliably.
The primary goal of such a study is oncological (cancer) search, which allows to detect the presence of malignant tumors. Along with this, the method makes it possible to detect hidden diseases, such as:
- atherosclerosis of blood vessels;
- kidney stones and gallbladder;
- tuberculosis;
- some disorders in the gastrointestinal tract;
- other serious diseases.
The studies are carried out in high-resolution HD with color 3D reconstruction of 3D.
Who needs this?
To all who are seriously interested in obtaining an objective picture of their health - at a time, without numerous trips to various diagnostic studies. In the USA and Israel, CT screening of the entire organism is mandatorily included in the clinical examination programs.
Contraindications to CT are determined in advance. Usually this:
- pregnancy;
- lactation period;
- renal failure;
- diabetes;
- thyroid dysfunction;
- severe heart disease;
- hyperkinesis, that is, the inability to lie motionless for a relatively long time;
- individual intolerance to radiopharmaceuticals used as a contrast medium.
For young children, the manipulation is carried out only if it is necessary.
Study duration
It's hard to believe, but the whole procedure takes no more than 10 minutes, and the finished processed results are provided within 1 hour.
Radiation load
It amounts to no more than 10% of the average daily rate obtained from the natural radiation background in which we were born and live. The irradiation dose on CT is comparable to that experienced by any passenger during a two-hour flight. Yes, that’s exactly so: at the altitude of a modern airliner, the atmospheric layer already protects a person from solar irradiation and cosmic rays, so, for example, the dose of pilots is higher than that of nuclear power plant workers.
