Computerized tomography (CT) scan. In patients who are not pregnant, a CT scan (a type of X-ray study) of the area of the appendix is useful in diagnosing appendicitis and peri-appendiceal abscesses as well as in excluding other diseases inside the abdomen and pelvis that can mimic appendicitis.
In pediatrics, when we test for strep in an office or hospital we actually run two different testsâ a rapid strep test (which is the test described above) and a culture test. For the culture test, the specimen swab is rubbed on a petri dish of agar (bacteria food) and put in an incubator to grow. If group A streptococcal bacteria grow on the agar, we say the culture is positive. The culture test is the most accurate test for strep throat.
