Book your CT Cystogram test at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy – a diagnostic centre that offers highly advanced services in the field of Radiology, Nuclear Medicine, and Pathology, certified by NABL and NABH. A CT Cystogram is a special type of imaging test performed to assess the urinary bladder and other tissues to see if there is damage, leakage, or perforation of the bladder. It uses a computed tomography (CT) scan with a dye placed in the bladder to create detailed images of the bladder wall and the other structures in the pelvis. We are equipping our radiology staff with cutting-edge CT technology and proper imaging procedures to aid in the safe and accurate evaluation.
About CT Cystogram
CT Cystogram is a special type of CT scan to evaluate the urinary bladder. It is especially helpful in situations where there is a medical suspicion of the bladder being damaged, leaking, or disrupted. As part of Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, a detailed CT cross-sectional view is done to assess the bladder and other pelvic structures. Results are compared to other relevant clinical data, previous investigations, and symptoms of the patient.
What is a CT Cystogram?
In a CT cystography, a suitable contrast is inserted into the urinary bladder through a urinary catheter. After the bladder is sufficiently filled to fulfill the examination protocol, computed tomography (CT) images are taken. The contrast exposes the interior of the bladder, enabling an evaluation of the bladder wall and any leakage of the contrast into the surrounding tissues. Further CT scans are acquired before, during, or after filling the bladder based on clinical indication and examination procedure.
Common Reasons for CT Cystogram
Evaluation of suspected bladder injury
Detection of bladder perforation or rupture
Assessment of suspected urinary leakage
Evaluation following pelvic or abdominal trauma
Assessment after certain surgical procedures
Evaluation of postoperative bladder complications
Investigation of abnormalities involving the urinary bladder
Further assessment when other imaging findings require clarification
Conditions Evaluated
Bladder Injury
CT Cystogram can help identify injuries to the bladder, particularly following trauma or surgical procedures.
Bladder Perforation
The examination can help detect a breach in the bladder wall by demonstrating leakage of contrast outside the bladder.
Urinary Leakage
Contrast-enhanced bladder imaging may help identify the location and extent of suspected urine leakage.
Traumatic Bladder Injury
CT Cystogram can be useful in evaluating suspected bladder damage associated with pelvic or abdominal trauma.
Postoperative Complications
The examination may be performed when there is concern about bladder healing or urinary leakage following surgery.
Who Should Consider This Scan?
Your doctor may recommend a CT Cystogram if you:
Have suspected bladder injury
Have experienced pelvic or abdominal trauma
Have symptoms or findings suggesting urinary leakage
Require evaluation after bladder or pelvic surgery
Have an abnormal finding requiring detailed bladder assessment
Need further evaluation of a suspected bladder perforation

जांच के कारण के अनुसार डॉक्टर या रेडियोलॉजी टीम द्वारा दिए गए तैयारी संबंधी निर्देशों का पालन करें।
हर स्थिति में खाली पेट रहना आवश्यक नहीं होता, लेकिन यदि जांच केंद्र द्वारा खाली पेट रहने के निर्देश दिए गए हैं, तो उनका पालन करें।
यदि आप गर्भवती हैं, गर्भधारण की योजना बना रही हैं या गर्भधारण की संभावना है, तो चिकित्सा टीम को इसकी जानकारी दें।
किसी भी ज्ञात एलर्जी या कंट्रास्ट माध्यम से पहले हुई प्रतिक्रिया के बारे में चिकित्सा टीम को बताएं।
यदि आपको गुर्दे की बीमारी, मूत्र मार्ग से संबंधित समस्या, हाल ही में कोई सर्जरी या अन्य महत्वपूर्ण चिकित्सकीय समस्या हुई है, तो डॉक्टर को इसकी जानकारी दें।
वर्तमान में ली जा रही दवाओं और चल रहे उपचार के बारे में जानकारी दें।
यदि पेशाब करने में कठिनाई या कोई अन्य महत्वपूर्ण मूत्र संबंधी लक्षण हैं, तो जांच टीम को बताएं।
यदि उपलब्ध हों, तो पिछली सीटी स्कैन, अल्ट्रासाउंड, एक्स-रे, सर्जरी से संबंधित अभिलेख या अन्य चिकित्सकीय दस्तावेज साथ लाएं।
मूत्राशय में कंट्रास्ट डालने के लिए आमतौर पर मूत्र कैथेटर लगाया जाता है; यदि पहले कैथेटर लगाने में कोई कठिनाई या अधिक असुविधा हुई हो, तो चिकित्सा टीम को बताएं।
मूत्राशय में कंट्रास्ट भरने और इमेजिंग के दौरान चिकित्सा टीम द्वारा दिए गए सभी निर्देशों का पालन करें।
The patient’s medical history, symptoms, previous investigations, surgical history, urinary complaints, and reason for the examination are reviewed.
The patient is positioned appropriately on the CT examination table.
A urinary catheter is carefully inserted into the bladder by a trained healthcare professional using appropriate clinical precautions.
An appropriate contrast medium is introduced into the urinary bladder through the catheter according to the examination protocol.
CT images are acquired before, during, or after bladder filling as clinically required.
The images provide detailed cross-sectional views of the urinary bladder, bladder wall, and surrounding pelvic structures.
The examination evaluates for bladder injury, perforation, rupture, contrast leakage, and other abnormalities of the urinary bladder.
Additional images or delayed imaging may be obtained when required to clarify the location or extent of suspected leakage.
