CT Scan
A CT Scan (Computed Tomography Scan) is a modern imaging technique that provides highly detailed cross-sectional images of the body’s internal organs, bones, and tissues. Unlike a regular X-ray, which shows only a single flat image, a CT scan uses advanced computer technology and rotating X-ray machines to produce 3D views of the inside of the body. This allows doctors to see deeper and diagnose problems with greater precision and accuracy. At VS Hospitals, Chennai, the Radiology and Imaging Department is equipped with advanced multi-slice CT scanners that deliver faster, clearer, and safer imaging results. The hospital’s radiologists and technicians are trained to perform high-resolution scans that help in diagnosing everything from brain and chest conditions to abdominal and orthopedic problems.
