Using our sophisticated Contrast Enhanced Computed Tomography (CECT) technology, we provide high-resolution sectional imaging of the neck, using intravenous (IV) contrast, and assist doctors in diagnosing tumors, infections, enlarged lymph nodes, thyroid problems, salivary gland diseases, vascular anomalies, and many other complicated diseases of the neck. Our highly qualified radiologists use the latest technological advances in CT scanning machines and perform comprehensive contrast studies, resulting in a precise diagnosis and proper treatment plan.

About CECT Neck

A CECT Neck is an advanced type of imaging test that takes multiple X-rays and combines computer technology and intravenous (IV) contrast to create detailed views of the cross sections of the neck area. It picks up the soft tissues, the blood vessels, lymph nodes, glands, and abnormal lesions, giving a thorough assessment of the neck structures.

The scan provides good imaging of the pharynx, larynx, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, salivary glands, cervical lymph nodes, vessels, airway, soft tissues, cervical vertebrae, and other anatomical structures. At Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, the advanced CT imaging technology provides high-quality, contrast-intensity imaging, enabling more accurate evaluation of head/neck disorders.

What is a CECT Neck?

CECT Neck provides very detailed imaging of the neck, allowing doctors to get a good assessment of viruses, tumours, inflammation, enlarged lymph nodes, disorders of the blood vessels, and other conditions that might not be apparent on standard imaging tests.

This scan is typically ordered to determine if there is abnormal swelling, if a patient has a swollen neck mass that is not identified elsewhere, if a cancer is suspected, if a patient is having an infection, has trouble swallowing, or needs more detailed information before treatment or surgery.

Common Reasons for CECT Neck

• Persistent neck swelling or lump
• Enlarged cervical lymph nodes
• Suspected head and neck tumours
• Evaluation of thyroid or salivary gland disorders
• Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia)
• Neck infections or abscesses
• Assessment of vascular abnormalities
• Pre-operative evaluation
• Follow-up after treatment or surgery

Conditions Evaluated

Head and Neck Tumours

Helps detect and evaluate benign and malignant tumours involving the neck and surrounding structures.

Enlarged Lymph Nodes

Assesses enlarged or abnormal cervical lymph nodes caused by infection, inflammation, or malignancy.

Thyroid and Salivary Gland Disorders

Evaluates thyroid enlargement, nodules, salivary gland infections, stones, and masses.

Neck Infections

Detects cellulitis, deep neck infections, abscesses, and inflammatory conditions.

Vascular Abnormalities

Provides enhanced visualization of major blood vessels and vascular lesions within the neck.

Airway and Soft Tissue Disorders

Evaluates abnormalities affecting the airway, pharynx, larynx, and surrounding soft tissues.
