CT Chest (and its high-resolution variant HRCT) provides exquisite detail of the lungs, airways, pleura, mediastinum and chest wall. It is essential for evaluating interstitial lung disease, pulmonary embolism (CT pulmonary angiography), lung cancer staging, pneumonia complications, tuberculosis, and post-COVID lung changes. The scan takes about 10 minutes and uses low-dose X-rays.
