CT Scans (Computed Tomography)
Multi-Slice Computed Tomography (CT)
Aura Care Centre’s imaging wing is equipped with high-speed multi-slice CT scanners. Computed Tomography combines a series of X-ray projections taken from different angles to construct highly detailed cross-sectional views of bones, blood vessels, and soft organs inside the body.
Our high-speed scanners facilitate immediate image capture, which is essential for emergency trauma diagnostics, cardiac profiling, and vascular mappings.
Low-Dose High-Speed Imaging
Our CT scanning facility delivers fast and secure diagnostic results:
Ultra-Fast Scanning
Captures complete organ volumes in less than 5 seconds, minimizing motion blur and breathing artifacts.
Low Dose Radiation (ASiR)
Utilizes advanced reconstruction algorithms to reduce patient radiation dose by up to 40% while preserving resolution.
3D Reconstructions
Our medical workstation constructs detailed 3D representations of complex bone fractures and vascular structures.
Emergency Setup
On-call technicians and radiologists provide 24/7 scanning support for critical head trauma, accidents, and strokes.
Our Core CT Scan Services
Below are the standard CT investigations performed in our radiology wing:
| CT Scan Type | Clinical Applications | Fasting / Contrast | Time Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| HRCT Chest (High Resolution) | Detailed scan to diagnose pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, interstitial lung disease (ILD), and lung nodules. | No fasting required | 3 Mins |
| CT Brain / Head | Detects brain haemorrhage, ischemic strokes, fractures, sinus blockages, and brain tumors. | No (Yes, if Contrast ordered) | 2 Mins |
| CT Abdomen & Pelvis | Evaluates appendicitis, kidney stones, bowel obstructions, pancreatitis, and liver lesions. | 4 Hours Fasting required | 5 - 10 Mins |
| CT Angiography | Visualizes cardiac coronary arteries, pulmonary embolism, or carotid blood blockages. | 4 Hours Fasting required | 10 Mins |
| CT Spine / Bones | Detailed bone structures for severe spinal injury, fractures, and bone density changes. | No fasting required | 3 Mins |
