Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about Dr. Subhash
01What is an 80‑Slice CT scan, and how is it different from a conventional CT?
What is an 80‑Slice CT scan, and how is it different from a conventional CT?
An 80‑Slice CT scanner uses 80 detector rows to capture multiple thin slices of the body in a single rotation. This allows faster scanning, higher resolution images, and better visualization of small structures (e.g., coronary arteries, brain vessels) compared to older CT machines with fewer slices. It also reduces motion artifacts and radiation dose.
02Is the radiation exposure from an 80‑Slice CT scan safe?
Is the radiation exposure from an 80‑Slice CT scan safe?
Yes. The 80‑slice technology is designed to minimize radiation exposure while maintaining image quality. It uses dose‑modulation techniques and faster scan times, making it safer than older CT scanners. However, CT scans are only performed when medically indicated (benefit outweighs risk), and special precautions are taken for children and pregnant women.
