My doctor wants to perform a CAT scan on me. What is the procedure like?

The procedure is similar to an X-ray, but it uses more advanced technology that allows doctors to see inside your body in greater detail. The test involves having a radioactive tracer injected into you and then being placed in a large machine that takes pictures of your organs as they move through your body. This helps doctors diagnose any problems with your internal organs or blood vessels.
