CECT Chest is a diagnostic CT scan performed using intravenous contrast dye to provide enhanced visualization of the lungs, mediastinum, blood vessels, lymph nodes, and chest wall structures. It is commonly used to evaluate lung tumors, mediastinal masses, lymphadenopathy, vascular abnormalities, and spread of cancer. The contrast agent helps differentiate normal and abnormal tissues more clearly, making this scan useful when non-contrast CT findings are inconclusive. CECT Chest is also used in staging of malignancies and assessment of complex chest conditions. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and performed under medical supervision with necessary safety precautions.
