Not sagittal slices. Those are transverse (axial) slices acquired in this scan.
Bad positioning! Eyes exposed to unnecessary irradiation! Pt should be asked to close eyes when laser is on! This should be removed from TH-cam. Bad practice!
Gantry should be tilted...

benisamartin hope all went well with your sons ct scan.sometimes fear of the unknown can be scarier than reality,so hope this posting helped
@benisamartim4 Thanks for the comment, glad the video is useful. Best of luck to you and your son.
First comment! im watching this for Psych unit 3!
I realy dont like this ct scan but its very usefull, it has found an angioma inside my head >.< 3x5 cm big and nobody knows how to fix it
No. The Cat Scan is different from an MRI. A CT uses radiation to make an image when an MRI uses a magnetic radio frequencies, no radiation involved with MRI. MRI goes into more detail.
@samantha34ize Back then, the technology was far inferior to todays current generation of CT scanners. Today, it uses far less X-ray radiation because the computer can resolve far more image information from far less exposure.
I once had to go in a cat scan... I was really sick and I threw up 37 times till I got sick of it And I had to spend the night at the hospital. Bad times...
If they suspect a neck fracture, he should be wearing a firm collar to stabilize the neck. Otherwise, they may create paralyze him.
You don't need to be sedated for this. It is not the coffin effect with an MRI.
I'm getting one tomorrow. I get chills and afterwards, I get headaches, so they're checking what's wrong with me
I got a CT scan of them for my lungs yesterday when i when for my yearlyt lung test. Not a plescent exoericence. I hated the fact that i had to take off my entiire top half off (including bra) but at least i was given one of those robe things. It felt like it tok aaages. But if it helps me, its good, so guess i can't conplain that much.

Yup, the average CT scan only lasts a few minutes
Looks to me like they missed the base of the skull.
@Xtwins4lifeX depends in the type of scanner used. time varies between 20-60 minutes.
1 hemisphere looks smaller then another. is that a head positioning issue or is it really smaller ?
@benisamartim4 Respect and happiness to you brother.
radiation extravaganza
this thing cause cancer in the lung blood and other comlication do mri ok
It can if you get lots of them over time but once or twice not likely

How long does this actually take for the person having the scan?
Usually between 30 seconds to a minute
