What is a CT Scan Spine Lumbar Contrast Test?
A CT Scan Spine Lumbar with contrast is an imaging study that uses X-rays and an injected dye. The dye (contrast) highlights blood vessels and soft tissues in the lower spine. This helps doctors see discs, bones, nerves, tumors, infections, or bleeding more clearly. It is important for finding causes of pain, numbness, or weakness in the legs. Doctors use it to guide treatment choices, plan surgery, check fractures after injury, and monitor known spine problems. The contrast improves detail so subtle problems are easier to spot. The test is fast and often done when MRI is not suitable or when detailed bone images are needed.
CT Scan Spine Lumbar Contrast Test Preparation
Do not eat or drink anything except water for 8-12 hours before the test

Why Take a CT Scan Spine Lumbar Contrast Test?
CT Scan Spine Lumbar Contrast is used as an imaging study within spinal imaging panels when doctors need detailed views of the lower back. It is ordered for severe or persistent back pain, leg numbness or weakness, trauma, suspected infection, or suspected tumors. The test helps diagnose herniated discs, fractures, spinal stenosis, abscesses, and tumors. Abnormal findings may be caused by injury, degeneration, infection, cancer, or prior surgery. A family history of spinal disease or cancer can make this test more likely to be recommended.
