A member asked:
If i have a bowl obstruction like cancer would a ct scan with contrast show it? i had a ct done and they tolled me everything looks good?

Colon cancer: If you had an abdominal ct with contrast that “ looks good” it’s unlikely that you have any kind of obstruction . I’d need to know more about your medical history to further advise you.
