Computed tomography, thorax, diagnostic; with contrast material(s)
AI EXPLANATION: A chest CT scan with contrast is an imaging test that uses specialized X-ray equipment and computer processing to create detailed cross-sectional pictures of the inside of the chest. It visualizes structures such as the lungs, heart, major blood vessels, airways, ribs, and lymph nodes. An imaging dye, or contrast material, is administered into a vein before or during the scan to help blood vessels and soft tissues stand out more clearly on the images.
