About CT Cervical Spine (Up to Six Vertebrae) – Limited Study – Plain
A CT Cervical Spine Limited Study, Plain is a specialized X-ray imaging that examines the cervical spine (the neck) up to 6 vertebrae without using any type of contrast material. The scan allows finely detailed pictures to be obtained of cross-sections of the bones of the neck, the joints between them, the spinal canal, and the surrounding bones.
At Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, CT is performed using advanced scanners to allow visualization of fine details of the bones, making it helpful in assessing cervical spine trauma, fractures, degenerative processes, and structural abnormalities.
