NCCT FOOT LEFT

NCCT (No Contrast Computed Tomography) Left Foot testing is a sophisticated imaging technique that creates precise, cross-sectional images of the left foot's bones and the surrounding tissues without the use of contrast material. Orthopaedic surgeons, Emergency physicians, Sports medicine specialists and Podiatrists often recommend an NCCT Left Foot test to aid in the apportioning of injury or disease sustained to the left foot due to other factors (e.g., fractures, ongoing pain, swelling, arthritis, or post-traumatic assessment of the foot). The NCCT Left Foot scan at City Imaging is performed with modern CT scanner technology which provides immediate, accurate, and trustworthy diagnostic results, providing improved comfort and safety for the patient receiving the test. While NCCT Left Foot tests vary from INR 3000 to INR 4500, their purpose is to provide information to assist clinicians in diagnosing the foot or ankle condition of their patients and providing appropriate treatment. An NCCT scan produces more than one two-dimensional image from thinner cross-sectional slices, allowing for the generation of three-dimensional (3D) images of complicated anatomy (small bones or multiple articulating surfaces) with greater clarity than traditional (plain) X-ray.

Is the Test Painful?

The NCCT Left Foot test is completely without pain. The scanner will not come in contact with you while the images are taken. There is also no contrast used, so there will be no problems due to contrast injection.

There may be some mild pain associated with positioning the foot when you have an injury. However, the technologist will assist in making you as comfortable as possible throughout the procedure.

What is radiation safety?

CT scans are performed using X-rays which are a form of ionizing radiation. However, due to advances in technology, CT machines now have protocols in place that optimise how much radiation is delivered versus the quality of the images created.

A CT should only be done at the recommendation of a physician when the expected benefit of the test exceeds the risk associated with the X-ray exposure.

Who should inform their doctor before the scan?

Patients should notify their healthcare provider if they:

• Are pregnant
• Have recently undergone multiple CT scans
