Schedule an appointment for CT Enterography With Contrast at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, which is NABL and NABH-certified. It is a high-accuracy imaging test in which an oral and intravenous contrast medium is used in conjunction with computed tomography (CT), resulting in detailed images of the small intestine, bowel wall, and mesentery (vegetation surrounding the small intestine), blood vessels, and other abdominal organs. It is useful in correlation with symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal bleeding, tumors, strictures, fistulas, and abdominal abscesses, as well as in the diagnosis of other bowel abnormalities. We employ state-of-the-art CT technology, and our highly qualified staff of radiologists deliver high-resolution pictures and quick reporting.

About CT Enterography With Contrast

CT Enterography with Contrast is a specialist CT scan that utilizes special intravenous administration of contrast dye, which is inserted into the small intestine through a feeding tube for evaluation of the small intestine in fine detail. Oral contrast has the effect of expanding the bowel loops, and intravenous contrast increases the visibility of the bowel wall, blood vessels, inflammation, and surrounding structures. The examination evaluates:

• Small Intestine: Bowel loops, wall thickness, and luminal abnormalities
• Bowel Wall: Inflammation, thickening, enhancement, and other changes
• Mesentery: Surrounding fat and mesenteric structures
• Blood Vessels: Arterial and venous structures supplying the bowel
• Surrounding Abdomen: Adjacent organs, lymph nodes, collections, and other abnormalities

What is CT Enterography With Contrast?

It is an advanced imaging study to get detailed cross-sectional images of the small bowel is CT Enterography With Contrast. The patient is given an oral contrast agent before the scan to fully distend the bowel; this is also given intravenously during the scanning procedure. It is useful for looking at Crohn's disease and other inflammatory bowel diseases, suspected small bowel tumours or small bowel strictures, along with fistulas, abscesses, and unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms.

Common Reasons for CT Enterography With Contrast

• Evaluation of suspected Crohn's disease
• Assessment of inflammatory bowel disease
• Persistent abdominal pain
• Chronic or unexplained diarrhoea
• Gastrointestinal bleeding
• Suspected small bowel tumour
• Evaluation of intestinal strictures or obstruction
• Assessment of fistulas and abscesses
• Follow-up of known inflammatory bowel disease
• Pre-operative assessment of small bowel abnormalities

Conditions Evaluated

Crohn's Disease

Helps assess bowel wall thickening, inflammation, abnormal enhancement, strictures, fistulas, and complications associated with Crohn's disease.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Provides detailed visualization of intestinal inflammation and associated complications.

Small Bowel Tumours

Helps identify abnormal masses and assess their relationship with the bowel and surrounding structures.

Intestinal Strictures

Evaluates narrowing of the small intestine and helps identify the extent and associated bowel changes.

Fistulas and Abscesses

Can detect abnormal connections between bowel loops and collections or abscesses around the intestine.

Gastrointestinal Bleeding

May help identify certain sources or associated abnormalities when gastrointestinal bleeding is suspected.
