Before the Scan
You might need to drink a special liquid that helps pictures come out clearer.
Wear comfy clothes without any metal, like zippers or buttons!
You’ll lie down on a sliding bed that moves into the CT machine.
It looks like a giant doughnut! The bed slides right through the hole.
Stay super still while the machine takes pictures. It won’t touch you!
You might hear some buzzing and clicking sounds. That's normal!
It's quick! The whole thing usually takes just a few minutes.
Doctors will look at the pictures to see how everything inside is doing.
