Standard ct scan: This refers to a ct scan that covers from the diaphragm to the upper legs. This also refers to contrast "dye" injected in your IV during the scan. The contrast allows the radiologist to tell between things that are normal or not normal in the abdomen. Common reasons for this test include appendicitis, diverticulitis, cancer, and trauma.
