A member asked:
If i have a ct scan w/contrast done on thursday and bone scan done the following monday will the contrast effect bone scan results? if so how?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: CT scan is an IV contrast to arterial vessel of organs. Bone scan uses a radioactive tracer to look for abnormalities in the bone. They are 2 different substances.
