About CECT Cervical Spine (Up to Six Vertebrae) – Limited Study
CECT Cervical Spine Limited Study is a special scan using a special type of computed tomography (CT) that provides a detailed look at the cervical spine (up to six of the neck's vertebrae) and the soft tissue and other tissues around the neck.
