A CT scan (also called a CAT scan) is a noninvasive, painless medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions. CT scans allow physicians to rapidly create detailed pictures of the body allowing them to more easily diagnose problems such as cancers, cardiovascular disease, infectious disease, trauma and musculoskeletal disorders. CT scans may also be used to guide surgeons to the right area during a biopsy. CT scans are one of the more common imaging technologies used by physicians to analyze the internal structures of various parts of the body. There are approximately 52 million CT scan test performed each year making this one of the more common imaging technologies used by the medical field.
