A member asked:
How accurate is a ct scan with contrast vs no contrast? had a ct scan of kidneys and bladder after recurrent utis and recently had an ultrasound come back normal. ct scan came back normal but i chose not to do the contrast. emetophobia. is that bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
CT with contrast may be necessary or recommended in some cases but not all. You should not worry if both ultrasound and CT without contrast are normal.
