MSCT ( tomografía multiespiral ) es un dispositivo de nuevo modelo con exposición reducida a la radiación en comparación con los modelos más antiguos. Le permite obtener imágenes claras en capas en diferentes planos anatómicos con alta resolución en menos tiempo (solo unos minutos). Complementado con la introducción de contraste.
MSCT permite al médico estudiar con más detalle el estado de los vasos y el trabajo del corazón, así como realizar:
No se requiere preparación especial para la TC. La única excepción es un estudio con administración intravenosa de un agente de contraste. En este caso, el diagnóstico debe realizarse en ayunas. A los niños y a algunos adultos, como aquellos con claustrofobia, se les administra un sedante.
