CT Angiography (CTA) (Per Part Plain) refers to a non-contrast CT scan of a specific part of the body, usually to evaluate blood vessels without contrast dye. This scan is used when contrast-enhanced imaging is not required or not possible due to allergies, kidney issues, or other medical reasons.

“Per Part” means the scan focuses on a specific body region, such as:
• Brain (Head/Neck CTA)
• Chest (Pulmonary CTA)
• Abdomen (Aortic CTA)
• Limbs (Peripheral CTA)

“Plain” means it is performed without contrast dye, making it useful for:
• Detecting large vessel abnormalities (e.g., aneurysms, severe blockages)
• Assessing bone and calcifications in arteries
• Evaluating vascular conditions when contrast is contraindicated
