CT Enterography

CT enterography is a specialized imaging technique used to evaluate the small intestine and surrounding structures. It involves the use of a computed tomography (CT) scanner and oral contrast material to provide detailed images of the small bowel.

During a CT enterography, the patient is given a drink containing a contrast agent, usually a solution that contains a high concentration of iodine. This contrast material helps to highlight the small intestine and allows for better visualization of any abnormalities or inflammation.
