A thyroid CT scan with dye typically takes around 30 minutes to an hour, including preparation, contrast dye administration, scanning, and post-scan observation. To learn more, connect with me at drjeromepuryear.com. Thank you!
At the hospitals where I work the intravenous contrast is injected just before the scan is done and should take less than 15 minutes after the injection.
