Q: how long does volumetric multi-detector cta of brain and neck with contrast take under scan. i was under 20 minutes?

: CAT scan technology has taken leaps and bounds over the years and superfast scanners are now ubiquitous. 20 minutes sounds about right. If you possess concerns about your experience, please contact the radiologist and discuss any unclear outcomes.
