In some cases, specific preparation may be required before a CT scan. This may include fasting for several hours before the exam, avoiding certain medications, or drinking special liquids to improve image quality. Your doctor will provide detailed instructions based on your specific situation.

A CT scan is a safe procedure, although it involves exposure to ionizing radiation. However, the benefits of obtaining an accurate and timely diagnosis generally outweigh the risks associated with radiation.
