NCCT ANKLE RIGHT

If you are experiencing problems with your right ankle, it is best to see a doctor immediately. NCCT Right Ankle Joint Test is one type of diagnostic test that your health care provider may choose to perform once evaluating an individual for bone or joint injury. City Imaging utilises the most advanced technology-driven computed tomography (CT) equipment to obtain multiple high resolution images of the right ankle joint without the need for the use or injection of contrast dye. Fractures, bone lesions, arthritis, infection, and other conditions that cannot be visualised using traditional x-rays can all be identified with the use of the CT scan, as opposed to using standard plain x-ray images. NCCT Right Ankle Joint Test typically costs between INR 3000 to INR 6000.

What is an NCCT Right Ankle Joint?

A non-contrast CT scan consists of multiple x-ray images at different angle from different views as well as the use of computer processing. CT images created without contrast media show the right ankle joint region.

There are many different slice images that will create 3D images of the right ankle joint. By combining all the CT slices, you can get different angles when inspecting the ankle, making it easier for a physician to detect small abnormal findings when compared with two-dimensional x-ray film, which only provides two-dimensional images of your ankle.
