i think i am having Sinusitis and I intend to go for E.N.T specialist. I was told that doctor will do CT scan usually. so how much it costs for a head CT scan at private hospital? and how much it cost in government hospital? i have medical card but if i think it can't cover the cost if i am not admitted into the hospital for a day right?

just curious, do you have guys have the contrasts materials during the CT scan? I read from the net saying it can provide some mild discomfort and worst case, could have the metallic taste. is that true?
2ndly, i am not sure how safe is this CT Scan as it uses x-rays which are 1 of the cause of cancer. This is my 1st time and my company is having the benefit do to a medical checkup every year. So, thought of giving it a try.

CT scan can be done with or without contrast. Contrast is used to lighten up the vascular structure. Sometimes they will test your renal function prior to contrast, patient who has impaired renal function don't really tolerate contrast. If you are a healthy 20 year old, it should be fine. Some say it taste like pineapple juice....
Added on February 14, 2011, 6:24 pmyup and CT scan is definitely more hazardous in terms of radiation. However, it does provide very good anatomical details

I don't know...can't help you..must be very expensive. Get a doctor advice before you proceed with CT scan. Sometimes it's not necessary.Anyway, you need a doctor to interpreted the CT scan result.

QUOTE(jack~daniel @ Aug 17 2015, 08:11 AM) not even 100 in gov hospital... Which CT scan costs less than RM100? In Mar 2017, thoracolumbar CT scan costs RM490 at gov hospital. Have to pay 20% deposit (RM100) to schedule the scan which is typically minimum 2 weeks after your doctor requested the CT, then pay remainder on the day of the scan. Then wait another 2 weeks after the scan for result to be analyzed by doctor and then you have appointment to interpret it. Above is my personal experience today because I just scheduled to get CT scan, and I wanted to check the price.
