Spiral CT Scan of Chest (HRCT) Price in Bangladesh

What is Spiral CT Scan of Chest (HRCT)?

A Spiral CT Scan of the Chest (HRCT) is a specialized imaging technique used to obtain detailed, high-resolution images of the lungs and chest structures. It is particularly effective in diagnosing lung diseases such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, interstitial lung disease, and lung cancer.

During the procedure, you lie on a table while the CT scanner rotates around your chest, capturing multiple images. If contrast material is required, it is injected into a vein.

There is minimal preparation, such as removing jewelry and clothing above the waist. Risks include radiation exposure and potential allergic reactions to the contrast.

Results help identify lung abnormalities and guide treatment decisions.

What to expect & how to prepare

Spiral CT Scan of Chest (HRCT) 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 Spiral CT Scan of Chest (HRCT) result rather than self-diagnosing.
