What is the typical turnaround time for receiving the results of the CT scan?
Depends on where you are having your CT scan done. For Outpatient CT’s, the expectation is 1-3 days. For Inpatient CT’s, the expectation is same day. Hope this helps!
It really depends on what kind of heart arrhythmia you have, how fast your heart rate is, and how your body is responding. Most likely, medication will be the first line of treatment if the arrhythmia is severe enough to warrant treatment. Hope this helps!
A CT scan with dye is safe for most people. If you have an iodine allergy, it may not be suitable for you to have the dye since the dye contains iodine. Most people describe a warm, flushed feeling as the dye is injected, and then will feel it quickly subside. Hope this helps!
