A member asked:
Had a ct scan with contrast im concerned that i didnt always hold my breath like they wanted would this cause something to be missed? would the radiologist redo test if they find the study blurry?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If the imaging study is technically unsatisfactory, the radiologist will note that. No need to worry till you get the results. Wish you good health!
