AI EXPLANATION: A chest CT scan is an imaging test that uses specialized X-ray equipment and computer technology to take detailed, cross-sectional pictures of the inside of your chest, including the lungs, heart, blood vessels, and ribs. During this exam, an initial set of images is taken without contrast dye, followed by an intravenous injection of a special dye and a second set of images to help highlight tissues and blood vessels more clearly.
