As a leading provider of diagnostic services, Semwal Diagnostics aims to equip individuals with knowledge about cutting-edge diagnostic procedures. Join us on this captivating journey as we unravel the power of the triple phase CT liver scan.

Understanding Triple Phase CT Liver Scan:

The triple phase CT liver scan is a sophisticated imaging procedure that utilizes computed tomography (CT) technology to capture detailed images of the liver at different phases. It provides crucial information about the liver's blood supply, highlighting any abnormalities or lesions that may be present. This non-invasive and painless procedure plays a pivotal role in the detection, characterization, and management of liver diseases.

The Procedure:

At Semwal Diagnostics, our team of skilled radiologists and technologists ensures a seamless experience during the triple phase CT liver scan. Before the procedure, you may be asked to refrain from eating or drinking for a certain period to optimize image quality.

During the scan, you will lie on a comfortable table that moves through the CT scanner. The scanner emits a series of X-ray beams, which are detected by sensors and processed by a computer to create detailed cross-sectional images of the liver.

The triple phase CT liver scan consists of three distinct phases:

Arterial Phase: In this phase, the contrast dye is injected into a vein, and images are captured when the dye reaches the liver's arterial blood supply. This phase helps detect hype vascular lesions such as liver tumors or arterial abnormalities.

Portal Venous Phase: Following the arterial phase, images are obtained when the contrast dye fills the portal venous system. This phase provides a comprehensive view of the liver's vascular network, aiding in the detection of portal vein thrombosis, cirrhosis, or liver metastases.

Equilibrium Phase: During this phase, images are taken when the contrast dye is evenly distributed throughout the liver. This phase offers additional insights into liver lesions and enhances the evaluation of liver function.

Applications of Triple Phase CT Liver Scan:

The triple phase CT liver scan is a valuable tool in diagnosing and monitoring various liver conditions. Some key applications include:

Liver Tumors: This scan aids in the detection, characterization, and staging of liver tumors, including hepatocellular carcinoma, metastatic tumors, and benign lesions.

Cirrhosis Evaluation: The scan assists in assessing the extent of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis, enabling the development of appropriate management strategies.

Portal Hypertension: By evaluating the portal venous system, the scan helps detect complications associated with portal hypertension, such as varices or splenomegaly.

Liver Abscesses: The scan aids in identifying and characterizing liver abscesses, guiding effective treatment planning.
