CT Scan With Contrast: What You Need to Know
Some CT examinations require contrast material to help certain organs, tissues or blood vessels appear more clearly in the images.
Depending on the examination and clinical requirements, contrast options may include:
- Non-ionic contrast material
- Non-ionic contrast material (Visipaque 320)
Is contrast always required? No. Not every CT scan requires contrast. The radiologist or imaging team will determine whether contrast is necessary based on the examination and your medical condition.
Before a contrast-enhanced CT scan, the medical team may ask about previous contrast reactions, kidney disease, current medications and other relevant medical conditions.
Important: Contrast material may involve an additional charge depending on the examination and provider. Our team will confirm the requirements and total cost before your appointment.
What Is a CT Scan?
A CT scan (Computed Tomography) is a medical imaging examination that uses X-rays and computer processing to create detailed cross-sectional images of the body.
Doctors may recommend CT scans to investigate certain injuries, examine internal organs, assess structural abnormalities or obtain additional information about a medical condition.
Different CT examinations are designed to answer different medical questions. The appropriate scan should be selected by a qualified healthcare professional.
Common Types of CT Scans Available Through MedEx
1. CT Sinus (PNS) and Nasal Cavity
A CT PNS scan examines the paranasal sinuses, which are air-filled spaces around the nose.
Doctors may request sinus imaging to investigate selected persistent sinus symptoms, structural concerns or other conditions requiring detailed anatomical information.
MedEx offers the following listed examinations:
- CT PNS Screening (1 plane): THB 5,800
- CT PNS (2 planes): THB 7,300
- CT Nasal Cavity: THB 7,300
The screening examination and the two-plane examination may differ in scope. Your doctor and imaging centre should confirm which scan is appropriate.
2. CT Neck, Thyroid and Throat
CT examinations of the neck and surrounding areas may help clinicians evaluate selected structural abnormalities, masses or other concerns.
The MedEx menu includes:
- CT Neck
- CT Neck, Thyroid and Parathyroid
- CT Thyroid
- CT Nasopharynx
- CT Oropharynx
- CT Oral Cavity
- CT Parotid Gland
Each of these examinations is listed at THB 8,700.
Although these examinations involve nearby anatomical structures, they are not necessarily interchangeable.
Depending on the clinical concern, a doctor may recommend ultrasound, CT, MRI or another diagnostic investigation.
3. CT Orbits and Temporal Bone
CT Orbits examines structures around the eye sockets and may be requested for selected injuries or anatomical concerns.
CT Temporal Bone provides detailed images of bony structures surrounding the ears and may be useful in evaluating certain ear-related conditions.
- CT Orbits (2 planes): THB 7,300
- CT Temporal Bone: THB 11,600
The appropriate examination depends on the suspected condition and clinical findings.
4. CT Pituitary Gland and Sella
The pituitary gland is a small gland located at the base of the brain.
MedEx lists:
- CT Pituitary Gland (2 planes): THB 7,300
- CT Sella: THB 7,300
These examinations may provide information about selected anatomical concerns in this region.
However, MRI is often preferred when detailed assessment of the pituitary gland itself is needed. Your doctor should determine the most suitable imaging test.
5. CT Spine
A CT spine scan provides detailed images of spinal bones and surrounding structures.
Doctors may request spine CT imaging to evaluate certain injuries or bony abnormalities.
At MedEx, CT Spine (1 part) is listed at THB 8,700.
The specific spine section must be confirmed before booking.
For certain spinal cord, nerve or disc conditions, MRI may be more appropriate.
6. CT Pancreas
A CT pancreas scan may be recommended to evaluate certain pancreatic conditions or abnormalities.
MedEx lists CT Pancreas Spiral at THB 7,300.
Pancreatic CT examinations can require specific imaging protocols and contrast phases. The referring doctor and imaging centre should confirm the examination requirements.
7. CT Upper Abdomen and Whole Abdomen
An abdominal CT scan may help doctors assess internal organs and structures, including the liver, pancreas, kidneys and other abdominal tissues.
MedEx offers:
- CT Upper Abdomen: THB 8,700
- CT Whole Abdomen: THB 14,500
An upper-abdomen CT and a whole-abdomen CT may cover different anatomical regions.
The exact scan coverage, whether the pelvis is included and any contrast requirements should be confirmed before booking.
Why Do CT Scan Prices Vary in Bangkok?
When comparing CT scan prices in Bangkok, several factors may affect the cost.
- Body area: Different examinations cover different organs and anatomical structures.
- Scan protocol: Some examinations require additional imaging sequences, phases or reconstructions.
- Contrast material: Certain examinations may require contrast to improve visibility of specific structures.
- Medical assessment: Some patients may need a consultation or laboratory tests before imaging.
- Imaging provider: Prices and inclusions may vary between hospitals and imaging centres.
When comparing prices, it is important to confirm that you are comparing the same examination and included services.
How to Prepare for a CT Scan
Preparation depends on the type of CT scan and whether contrast material is needed.
Your imaging provider will give you instructions before the appointment.
- Confirm the examination. Bring your doctor’s referral, if available, and make sure the correct body area has been requested.
- Follow preparation instructions. Some CT examinations require fasting, while others do not.
- Inform the medical team about your health. Tell them about kidney problems, previous contrast reactions, possible pregnancy and relevant medications.
- Remove metal objects if requested. Certain metal items may interfere with the scan images.
- Ask about your report. Confirm when the radiologist’s written report and digital images will be available.
The CT scan itself is often completed quickly, but the overall appointment may take longer because of preparation, contrast administration or medical assessment.

Is a CT Scan Safe?
CT scanning uses ionising radiation. When medically indicated, the benefits of a CT examination may outweigh its potential risks.
However, CT scanning is not necessary for every medical condition.
A qualified clinician should determine whether CT, MRI, ultrasound or another investigation is appropriate.
If you are pregnant or think you might be pregnant, inform your healthcare team before the scan.
Patients requiring contrast material may also need additional medical screening.
