CT Scan of Undescending Testis Price in Bangladesh

What is CT Scan of Undescending Testis?

A CT scan of an undescended testis is a diagnostic imaging procedure used to locate a testis that has failed to descend into the scrotum, a condition known as cryptorchidism. The scan involves the patient lying on a table while X-ray beams create cross-sectional images of the abdomen and pelvis.

These images help identify the location of the undescended testis, which may be in the abdomen, inguinal canal, or elsewhere. Preparation typically involves fasting for a few hours before the procedure.

While CT scans are generally safe, radiation exposure and potential allergic reactions to contrast agents are minor risks. Results assist in surgical planning or monitoring.

What to expect & how to prepare

CT Scan of Undescending Testis 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 Scan of Undescending Testis result rather than self-diagnosing.
