What is CT Cisternography / Cistetnogram?
CT Cisternography / Cisternogram is an imaging procedure used to visualize the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the spaces within the brain (ventricles and subarachnoid space). It is typically used to detect CSF leaks, arachnoid cysts, hydrocephalus, or brain and spinal cord abnormalities.
During the procedure, a contrast dye is injected into the CSF (usually via a lumbar puncture), and CT imaging is used to track the flow and distribution of the fluid. The procedure is non-invasive, providing detailed images that help in diagnosing neurological conditions.
Some patients may experience discomfort during the injection.
What to expect & how to prepare
CT Cisternography / Cistetnogram is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.
- Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
- Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
- Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
- Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your CT Cisternography / Cistetnogram result rather than self-diagnosing.
