CT Scan
Home Services Imaging Services CT Scan

CT Scan

A CT (computerized tomography) scan combines a series of X-ray images taken from different angles around your body. Then, it combines the differently angles together to show a composite image. Because of this, CT scan images provide more-detailed and comprehensive image than plain X-rays do.

Why a CT Scan?

A CT scan has many uses, but it’s particularly well-suited to quickly examine people who may have internal injuries from car accidents or other types of trauma. It is also used to identity cancers or progression of diseases, stoke and other neurological changes. Invasive procedures may be performed as well to include biopsy, drainage, catheter placements and at CMMC Cryo-Embolizations. CT scans can be performed for head, chest, abdomen, pelvis, spine and many more body areas. Staffed by advanced trained or CT certified CT Technologists. Radiologists with advanced expertise in performing procedures as well as timely and detailed reports.

Benefits to our CT services include:

  • 24/7 availability for inpatients and outpatient appointments from 7:30 a.m.-8 p.m.
  • CMMC CT is accredited through the American College of Radiology
  • CMMC CT also has a specialized distinction for CT Lung Screening with a fully-accredited CT lung screening program through the American College of Radiology
