What are the side effects of enhanced lung CT?


Healing hearts, healing lives.
Lung enhanced CT can cause side effects such as allergies, kidney damage, and inhibition of hematopoiesis.
1. Allergic
lung enhanced CT requires injection of contrast media into the body for examination. Some patients are allergic to contrast media and may experience cough, difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, etc. Uncomfortable symptoms.
2. Kidney damage
Contrast media need to be metabolized and excreted through the kidneys. When too much contrast media is injected, the burden on the kidneys can be increased, resulting in kidney damage.
3. Inhibition of hematopoiesis When
enhanced CT is performed, the body receives more radioactive substances. The accumulation of radioactive substances in the body can inhibit hematopoietic function, and the patient's hematopoietic function is reduced in the short term.
