Computed tomography is a popular medical imaging technique, hardware diagnostics with a set of clear protocols for examining internal organs.

The CT scanner was invented in 1972 and only the brain was examined with its help. Over the next 4 years, the development of technology in medicine made it possible to improve the apparatus for diagnosing the whole body.

CT is a layer-by-layer diagnostic of the body based on the use of x-rays. And although during the procedure the patient is exposed to some radiation exposure, the radiation dose is so small that it does not harm the body. All parameters are controlled by the scanner software.

Good evening !!! I was in the clinic for a consultation in early September. Dr. Bul and the staff are very polite, attentive, calm, and what is surprising, they are not trying to make money on you, but they offer options for cheaper treatment and testing. No one tried to scare or speed up the treatment process, but on the contrary, explained the risks and different methods of treatment, which encouraged and inspired hope for a favorable resolution of my problem.

My name is Sergey, I am undergoing treatment at the oncology department of the Nordwest Clinic in Frankfurt am Main. I would like to note the high professional level of doctors, the technical equipment of the clinic at the proper level. I want to express special gratitude to Professor Elka Yeager, senior doctor Kiselichki, Dr. Weber, the highest level of professionalism, are very friendly and attentive, the junior staff are smart, everything is super, I’m very pleased with the treatment, if not for one “but” ... Because of ignorance language had to contact the company "Phoenix Service", which is an intermediary for the provision of medical services, led by Radislav. My communication with them began with the fact that before arrival they demanded a significant prepayment, which was timely transferred to their account. After arriving at the clinic, I had to transfer money several times, rather big money. I persistently asked the company’s employees to conclude an agreement with me on the provision of services by Phoenix Service, in order to specifically understand which services and for what specific payment the services will be provided. However, no contracts, as well as invoices with prices, were provided to me, which directly testifies to dishonesty. Only two months later I received the clinic’s bills (with which I completely agree) and separately a bill from Phoenix Service for the services rendered, after viewing which there were simply no words ... As it turned out, being treated in Germany was not expensive, it was expensive to pay for the services of Phoenix invoiced, which either didn’t turn out at all, or turned out to be in the wrong amount and at very high prices. I tried to talk with the head of the company Radislav, saying that I did not agree with the bill, to which I received the answer "if something does not suit you, you can refuse our services further." I officially wrote an appeal to the clinic about the detachment from this dishonest company, to which I received a positive response. He also wrote an official letter to Phoenix with a request to review the account, to which he still has not received an answer. I want to warn everyone who is in my position, those cancer patients who sell everything in order to pay for treatment and live on, but these “phoenixes” don’t stop at anything to enrich themselves at their expense.

We are discharging from the hospital, we will keep in touch with this doctor. The procedures go terribly, there is no specific treatment prescribed yet, there is no diagnosis. Besides the fact that my daughter eats, has lunch, has dinner as in a usual sanatorium, they just rip off 600-700 euros per night - a lot of money when you don’t see the result, why stay, just overnight to pay money.

On the whole, everything is operational in the clinic, as soon as we entered the girl’s clinic at the reception, they quickly reacted. Professor himself Dr. Med. Barberra took us very politely, took a lot of time to adapt the child to himself, so that he would get used to it, because the child was scared, the professor took a direct individual approach, which is rare enough for a doctor of this level, especially considering that he is not at all a child, even a surgeon, so I want to note this moment, so the little patient, of course, is worth contacting. The doctor promptly worked because he didn’t see the problem in his direction and redirected us to orthopedists where we were also promptly given an x-ray. Nord Clinics Alyan is very accurate in the organization, that is, we were met minute by minute in time, I want to mention Karina, a girl translator, who accompanied us all the time, no delays, no extra calls.

FAQ about CT (computer tomography) in Germany

Indications for CT

CT is prescribed for:

  • carrying out primary diagnostics of a number of diseases;
  • as a clarifying technique (to confirm a preliminary diagnosis);
  • to control changes in the course of therapy.

Types of CT

CT ( spiral tomography ) is used to diagnose diseases of all internal organs.

MSCT ( multispiral tomography ) is a new model device with reduced radiation exposure compared to older models. It allows you to get clear layered images in different anatomical planes with high resolution in less time (only a few minutes). Supplemented by the introduction of contrast

MSCT allows the doctor to study in more detail the state of the vessels and the work of the heart, as well as to carry out:

  • 3D reconstruction to create a complete model of the organ of interest, for example, in plastic surgery or cardiology;
  • virtual colonoscopy or gastroscopy - a non-invasive examination of internal organs (requires special bowel preparation).

No hospitalization is required for any of the CT scans.

Preparation for tomography

No special preparation for CT is required. The only exception is a study with intravenous administration of a contrast agent. In this case, the diagnosis should be carried out on an empty stomach. Children and some adults, such as those with claustrophobia, are given a sedative.

How is a tomography performed?

Diagnosis using CT is quite fast. The study is carried out in a specially equipped room, where the patient lies on a special mobile table.

A contrast agent may be injected during the tomography (if required by the doctor) to more clearly show the area.

Contraindications for CT

There are no contraindications to the use of CT as such.

With some patients, intravenous administration of a contrast agent is negotiated on a separate basis due to the possible occurrence of an allergic reaction in them.

Contraindications for CT without contrast:

  • pregnancy;<
  • body weight exceeding the maximum allowable for the device.


Contraindications for CT with contrast:

  • the presence of an allergy to the substances that make up the contrast;
  • renal failure in exacerbation;
  • diabetes;
  • severe general condition;
  • thyroid pathology.
