A CT Triple Phase is a specialized contrast-enhanced CT scan that captures images of an organ (usually the liver, kidneys, or pancreas) during three distinct phases of blood flow:

Arterial Phase (Early Phase) – Captures images when the contrast dye is in the arteries.
Portal Venous Phase (Intermediate Phase) – Captures images when the dye reaches the veins.
Delayed Phase (Late Phase) – Captures images after the dye has cleared from the blood vessels but remains in tissues.

This scan helps detect tumours, vascular abnormalities, and organ function by analyzing how contrast moves through the organ over time.
