Whole body computed tomography or whole body CT scan is a diagnostic imaging method that examines the structures and organ systems inside the body in a general way. The purpose of whole body computed tomography is to detect small lesions at an early stage and is used in cancer screening. This technique is increasingly chosen by many people, but not everyone understands whole body computed tomography, in which cases should a whole body computed tomography be indicated.

Chest computed tomography is an advanced imaging method that uses X-rays with higher intensity than X-ray films to examine images of structures inside the chest. This is a method with many advantages and is gradually becoming a supporting tool in diagnosing, detecting and monitoring diseases in the chest, heart, lungs and mediastinum. In addition, doctors can prescribe contrast injection for chest CT scan when it is necessary to assess the absorption of abnormal structures, thereby making more accurate assessments.
