Also Known As:

CT Coccyx

The Coccyx Contrast CT scan is a specialized imaging procedure that provides detailed visualization of the coccyx, the small triangular bone at the base of the spine, along with the surrounding soft tissues, ligaments, and small vessels. Using intravenous contrast, the scan enhances the visibility of vascular structures and soft tissue abnormalities, helping to differentiate normal anatomy from pathological changes. It is particularly useful for evaluating fractures, dislocations, degenerative changes, tumors, infections, or vascular malformations in the coccygeal region. The procedure is indicated for patients experiencing coccygeal pain, trauma, or chronic discomfort that requires accurate anatomical assessment. High-resolution images allow clinicians to plan interventions, monitor healing, or guide surgical procedures if needed. The scan is non-invasive, quick, and safe, providing precise anatomical information that supports accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and post-procedure follow-up. It ensures comprehensive assessment of both bony and soft tissue structures in the coccygeal area.

TAT Policy

The Turnaround Time (TAT) for a test depends on the following factors:

  • Registration date and time
  • Type of scan or test
  • Scan time or sample collection time

Please note that in uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to the complexity of the test or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed about the estimated TAT at the time of registration or after completion of the test.
