When is a ct scan of the neck used?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good test: Can look at bones for fracture if you had trauma. Can do cta neck to look at blood vessels if you have carotid artery disease. Can look at tissues to see if there is a cancer or infection. These are a very few examples of the uses of ct. See radiologyinfo.Org.
