CT Scan Dorsolumbar (DS) Spine near me in Ghaziabad

CT Scan Dorsolumbar (DS) Spine is an imaging procedure used to create cross-sectional images of the lumbar region of the vertebral column. This test is used to create a three-dimensional image of the spinal column, the vertebral bones, intervertebral disks and the surrounding soft tissues.

This test is prescribed by the doctor to explain the cause of any unexplained lower back pain, to detect fractures, inflammations, or infections of the vertebral bones that are not visible on a simple X-ray, to detect malformations, and to diagnose any suspected infection, osteoporosis, deformities or abnormal growth of the bones and arthritis.

CT exams generally use a small amount of radiation and are therefore considered relatively safer as compared to X-rays.
