Spiral CT Scan of HBS/Liver Price in Bangladesh

What is Spiral CT Scan of HBS/Liver?

A Spiral CT Scan of the Hepatobiliary System (HBS) and Liver is an imaging procedure that uses X-rays to obtain detailed images of the liver, bile ducts, and surrounding structures. It helps diagnose conditions such as liver tumors, cirrhosis, fatty liver disease, or bile duct blockages.

During the scan, you lie on a table while the CT machine rotates around your abdomen, capturing multiple cross-sectional images. Preparation may involve fasting for a few hours before the procedure.

If contrast material is used, it may be injected to enhance the images. Risks include radiation exposure and potential allergic reactions to the contrast.

Results help guide treatment decisions.

What to expect & how to prepare

A CT scanner takes many X-ray images from different angles and combines them into cross-sectional pictures. You lie on a table that moves through a ring-shaped scanner.

• Contrast: some CT studies use an iodine-based contrast injection and some do not. If contrast is planned, the centre may ask you to avoid food for a few hours and to bring a recent kidney function report.
• Tell the staff: mention kidney disease, diabetes medicines such as metformin, asthma, previous reaction to contrast, or any allergy before the scan.
• Metal: jewellery and metallic items in the scan area are removed; you may be asked to change into a gown.
• Fasting: a plain CT without contrast normally needs no fasting — confirm with the centre which type is booked for you.

CT uses ionising radiation, at a higher dose than a plain X-ray. Tell the staff if you are pregnant or think you might be, so the request can be reviewed.

Performed by a radiology team, normally on a doctor's request.
