A member asked:

I had a cat scan done and i have fibroids, but the doctor never said anything else besides that. would the doctor been able to detect infection or sca?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Scar itself, no.: Infection, possibly. Pelvic inflammatory disease, diverticulitis, appendicitis, etc. Can often be seen on ct. It depends on how severe the infection is (abscesses, excess pelvic fluid, inflamed looking bowel, edema around the uterus/tubes/ovaries).
