  2. Barium sulfate suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium_sulfate_suspension

    Barium sulfate suspension, often simply called barium, is a contrast agent used during X-rays. [1] Specifically it is used to improve visualization of the gastrointestinal tract (esophagus, stomach, intestines) on plain X-ray or computed tomography. [2]

  3. Contrast CT - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_CT

    A CT pulmonary angiogram, in this case showing pulmonary embolism of saddle-type, which becomes more radiolucent than the radiocontrast filled blood surrounding it (but it may be indistinguishable without radiocontrast). Contrast CT, or contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT), is X-ray computed tomography (CT) using radiocontrast.

  4. Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computed_tomography_of_the...

    In cases of suspected bowel leak or perforation, gastrointestinal fistula, interloop abscess or other fluid collection, oncologic staging and surveillance, and CT colonography, oral positive contrast is useful in delineating the lesions. [3] 1% dilute barium solution can be administered orally for bowel preparation for CT scan of the abdomen. [4]

  5. CT scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CT_scan

    A computed tomography scan (CT scan), formerly called computed axial tomography scan (CAT scan), is a medical imaging technique used to obtain detailed internal images of the body. [2] The personnel that perform CT scans are called radiographers or radiology technologists.

  6. CT pulmonary angiogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CT_pulmonary_angiogram

    Even though the actual scan may be completed in 1 second or less, considerable staff and patient time is required for preparation of the contrast agent, positioning on the scanner and planning the scan. This is particularly the case, as patients undergoing CTPA are frequently seriously unwell requiring oxygen treatment and/or close monitoring.

  7. Computed tomography angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computed_tomography...

    Volume rendered CT scan of abdominal and pelvic blood vessels. CT angiography is a contrast CT where images are taken with a certain delay after injection of radiocontrast material. The contrast material is radiodense causing it to light up brightly within the blood vessels of interest. In order for the CT scanner to be able to scan the correct ...

  8. Computed tomography urography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computed_tomography_urography

    A computed tomography urography (CT urography or CT urogram) is a computed tomography scan that examines the urinary tract after contrast dye is injected into a vein. [1]In a CT urogram, the contrast agent is through a cannula into a vein, allowed to be cleared by the kidneys and excreted through the urinary tract as part of the urine.

  9. Radiocontrast agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiocontrast_agent

    Iodinated contrast contains iodine.It is the main type of radiocontrast used for intravenous administration.Iodine has a particular advantage as a contrast agent for radiography because its innermost electron ("k-shell") binding energy is 33.2 keV, similar to the average energy of x-rays used in diagnostic radiography.
