A member asked:
I was wondering is a ct angiogram of the chest the same as ct chest with contrast?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
CT techniques: They are similar in many ways. However, the timing of the contrast for CT angiogram is different to allow for better visualization of the blood vessels in the chest.
