Is CT scan of kidneys safe?
Generally, if your doctor is ordering the scan, the benefits outweigh any risks. READ MORE
How long is a whole-body CT scan?
10 minutes if no contrast is involved; otherwise, no more than an 1 hr. READ MORE
Is CT dye bad?
No. It improves diagnostic capabilities significantly. For the radiologist it can be compared to seeing the world in black and white verses color. READ MORE
How should I prepare for a CT scan with dye?
Do not eat or drink anything 3 hrs before your exam. Drink oral contrast 1.5 hrs before exam; it may taste better cold. READ MORE
Is it okay to feel tired after CT scan with dye?
Well, nervousness and anxiety about getting a CT scan for the first time is enough to cause tiredness. It is not a side effect of the contrast given. READ MORE
How long is a kidney CT scan with dye?
The actual scan time will be very short, less than 5 minutes, but all the prep work will take 30 minutes. READ MORE

CAT scans
You can get everything done in one visit. READ MORE
Does CT scan dye hurt?
No, it should not cause pain. Some patients feel different sensations from the contrast, like warmth during injection of the contrast. READ MORE
Is CT scan dye safe for children?
Yes, the contrast agents used for CT exams are safe for children. READ MORE
Can CT scan dye cause any harm?
It is low risk. By law, any center using iodinated contrast has to have measures in place to handle any potential contrast reactions. If your doctor ordered a contrast scan, it is best to get it, as a non-contrast scan can severely limit the radiologists ability to detect problems. Bottom line, the benefits of contrast outweigh the risks. READ MORE
Can CT scan cause vertigo?
No. Although getting up quickly after laying flat can. READ MORE
Is CT scan dye radioactive?
No; contrast used for a CT scan is not radioactive. In contrast, nuclear medicine scans do use isotopes, which are radioactive. READ MORE
How long is a kidney CT scan?
That is for the first part of the scan. There are multiple phases for this scan, but if your kidney function is normal, the scan time itself shouldnt take more than 5 minutes. READ MORE
