A member asked:
What bones does a ct of your abdomen show?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
L spine: It will show the lower thoracic vertebrae, the lower ribs, the lumbar vertebrae, and the bones of the pelvis (depending on whether or not the pelvis is included in the scan)- usually it is ordered as a ct abdomen + pelvis, but sometimes a ct of the abdomen only is ordered.
