What is a CT?
Computed tomography (CT) uses X-rays to build cross-sectional images of the chest, abdomen, pelvis, and — with contrast — the vascular system (CT angiography). It is the first-line exam for many oncology, trauma, and cardiology questions. China's high-volume centers run 256-slice and dual-source scanners, and coronary CT angiography is available at dedicated cardiac hospitals.
Why do patients get a CT in China?
Western patients often wait days to weeks for a CT. At our partner Grade 3A hospitals, a CT is typically scheduled the same day or next day — with an English report and DICOM files delivered within 24–48 hours.
