Spiral CT Scan of KUB Price in Bangladesh

What is Spiral CT Scan of KUB?

A Spiral CT Scan of the KUB (Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder) is an imaging procedure that uses X-rays to create detailed, cross-sectional images of the urinary system. It helps diagnose conditions such as kidney stones, urinary tract infections, bladder tumors, or blockages in the ureters.

During the scan, you lie on a table while the CT scanner rotates around your abdomen and pelvis, capturing multiple images. Preparation typically involves removing jewelry and wearing a hospital gown.

If contrast material is required, it may be injected. Risks include radiation exposure and possible allergic reactions to contrast.

The results assist in diagnosing and planning treatment.

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.
