What is NCCT Hand?
Non Contrast Computed Tomography (NCCT) of hand is an imaging procedure in which the rotating beams of X-rays are used to create cross sectional images of the hand which can then be used to create a three dimensional image of the hand. This image can be used to visibly assess the anatomy of the hand and detect problems in it.
Why is NCCT Hand done?
