  • Hi  

    I can't help with your question as I haven't had a CT scan of my bowels and abdomen but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list. I'm sure some forum members will be along soon to help if they can.

    All the best with your scan today and remember to ask any questions you have while you're there, ie what areas are they scanning.

  • Hi  Hope the scans gone well? I’ve always had chest, abdomen and thorax if that helps?

    Take care
