Understanding the Test

What is a CT Brain Scan?

A quick, non-invasive imaging test that creates detailed cross-sectional pictures of your brain using X-rays and advanced computer processing.

🔍

What It Examines

A CT Brain (Head) Scan produces highly detailed cross-sectional images of the skull, brain tissue, blood vessels, ventricles, and surrounding structures. It can detect strokes, tumours, bleeding, infections, fractures, and hydrocephalus — often within minutes of the scan being completed.

⚙️

How It Works

The CT gantry rotates 360° around your head, taking hundreds of rapid X-ray images from different angles. Detectors measure how much radiation passes through brain tissue, bone, and fluid — each with a different density. Advanced software reconstructs this data into sharp 2D slices and 3D models for the radiologist to analyse.

🛡️

Is It Safe?

Yes. Our 160-slice scanner uses advanced low-dose protocols that minimise radiation while maintaining diagnostic quality. The small radiation exposure is well within safe limits and far outweighed by the clinical benefit. CT Brain Scan is routinely performed on adults, elderly patients, and when clinically indicated for older children.

📋

CT vs MRI Brain

CT is faster, more accessible, lower cost, and excellent for detecting acute bleeding, skull fractures, strokes, and bony abnormalities. MRI provides superior soft-tissue contrast for tumours, white matter disease, and subtle neurological changes. Your doctor will recommend the most appropriate scan for your condition.

What We Offer

Types of CT Brain Scans Available

We offer a comprehensive range of CT Brain & Head scanning services to meet every clinical requirement.

Most Requested 🧠

CT Brain Plain (Without Contrast)

Detects acute bleeding (haemorrhage), strokes, skull fractures, brain swelling, hydrocephalus, and early infarcts. The most commonly requested brain CT scan.

Advanced Imaging 💉

CT Brain With Contrast

Gadolinium contrast enhances visualisation of brain tumours, abscesses, meningitis, arteriovenous malformations, and blood-brain barrier breakdown.

Vascular 🩸

CT Brain Angiography (CTA)

Detailed imaging of cerebral blood vessels to detect aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), stenosis, and carotid artery disease.

Stroke Protocol

CT Brain Perfusion

Measures blood flow to different brain regions to assess acute stroke severity, identify salvageable tissue, and guide thrombolysis decisions.

Bone Detail 🦴

CT Head Bone Window

High-resolution bone algorithm imaging of skull, orbits, temporal bones, and facial skeleton for fracture detection and bony lesion assessment.

ENT / Sinus 👃

CT Paranasal Sinuses

Detailed evaluation of the paranasal sinuses, nasal cavity, and orbits for chronic sinusitis, polyps, tumours, and sinus-related headaches.

Before Your Scan

How to Prepare for CT Brain Scan

Simple guidelines to ensure the best quality scan and a smooth, comfortable experience at our centre.

Do's – Before Your Scan

  • Arrive 15–20 minutes early for registration
  • Bring your doctor's prescription and previous test reports
  • Inform staff about any allergies — especially to iodine or contrast dye
  • Tell us if you are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Disclose all medications you take, especially Metformin
  • Fast 4–6 hours if a contrast CT scan has been ordered
  • Wear comfortable, loose clothing without metal
  • Stay hydrated (unless fasting instructions are given)
🚫

Don'ts – What to Avoid

  • Do NOT eat or drink 4–6 hours before contrast CT (if instructed)
  • Avoid jewellery, hairpins, earrings, or metal accessories
  • Do not carry keys, coins, belts, or credit cards into scan room
  • Avoid hair clips, wigs with metal, or metallic hair dye
  • Do NOT hide medical history — it affects your safety
  • Avoid moving during the scan — even slight movement blurs images
  • Do NOT take Metformin 48 hrs before/after contrast (consult doctor)
  • Avoid breastfeeding 24–48 hrs after contrast injection
Step by Step

What Happens During
Your CT Brain Scan?

The entire process is simple, fast, and comfortable. Here's exactly what to expect.

1

Check-In & Verify

Present your doctor's prescription at reception. Staff will verify your details, prepare your file, and guide you through the health questionnaire.

2

Safety Screening

Complete a short form about allergies, implants, medications, and pregnancy. Our technologist will address any concerns before the scan begins.

3

Prepare & Position

Remove all metal objects and lie on the CT table. You'll be positioned on your back with your head in a specially designed headrest for perfect alignment.

4

The Scan (10–20 min)

The gantry rotates quietly and smoothly around your head. You may be asked to hold your breath briefly. The actual scanning takes just seconds per rotation — the process is completely painless.

5

Report & Collect

Our MD Radiologist carefully analyses the brain images and prepares a comprehensive signed report. Delivered same-day via WhatsApp, email, or in person.

💬

Open Gantry — No Claustrophobia

Unlike MRI, the CT scanner has a wide open gantry — you can see through it from both sides. Most patients find the experience very quick and comfortable. Our technologist communicates with you throughout via intercom. You are never alone.

🚨

Emergency? Walk In Anytime

Our CT scan centres are open 24 hours, 7 days a week, 365 days a year — including holidays. For stroke, head trauma, or any neurological emergency, walk in directly or call us for immediate priority scheduling. No appointment needed for emergencies.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about CT Brain Scan — answered clearly and simply.

CT scans use low-dose ionizing radiation. Our 160-slice scanner uses advanced dose-reduction protocols, keeping exposure to the minimum required for diagnostic quality — well within internationally accepted safety limits. The diagnostic benefit far outweighs the small radiation risk. CT Brain Scan is routinely and safely performed on adults daily at our centre.
The actual CT scan of the brain takes as little as 5–15 seconds per pass. Total time at the centre including check-in, preparation, and scan is typically 15–30 minutes. Contrast CT may take slightly longer as a waiting period of 10–15 minutes is required after contrast injection. Your digital report is ready the same day.
At Usmanpura Imaging Centre, CT Brain Plain (without contrast) — one of the most affordable in Ahmedabad. CT Brain with Contrast, and CT Brain Angiography are transparent with no hidden charges. Call or WhatsApp us for the exact current rate for your prescribed scan.
The CT scan is completely painless — you simply lie still while the scanner rotates around your head. If contrast dye is required, you may feel a brief warmth or metallic taste — this is normal and passes quickly. Rare allergic reactions to contrast are possible; our team is fully trained to manage these. Most patients resume normal activities immediately after the scan.
We provide same-day digital reports for CT Brain Scans. In most cases, your signed radiologist report is ready within 2–4 hours after the scan. Reports are delivered via WhatsApp and email. Hard copies and CDs are available for collection. For emergency cases, urgent reporting can be arranged — please inform the staff at registration.
A doctor's prescription is required for CT scanning as it is a medical procedure involving radiation that must be clinically justified. If you have emergency symptoms (sudden severe headache, loss of consciousness, head injury), please come directly — our medical team will assess you. For insurance claims, a valid referral is required.
A plain CT Brain (without contrast) is used for emergency situations like acute bleeding, stroke, head trauma, and hydrocephalus — it's quick and requires no preparation. A contrast CT uses an injected iodine-based dye that highlights blood vessels, tumours, infections, and areas of inflammation with much greater detail. Your doctor will specify which type is required based on your symptoms and clinical situation.
CT Brain is excellent for detecting acute haemorrhage, strokes, skull fractures, brain masses, hydrocephalus, and bony abnormalities. However, for subtle soft-tissue changes, early demyelinating diseases, small tumours, or spinal cord evaluation, MRI provides superior detail. Often, both tests complement each other. Your radiologist's report will recommend further imaging if needed.
