CECT is the short form of contrast-enhanced computed tomography. CECT neck is a radiological procedure, which uses contrast with the motorised X-rays for the detection of abnormalities in the neck. Contrast is used for clear and detailed images for easy and early detection of disorders. CECT can assess abnormalities in the neck bones, joints, and the muscles around them.
CECT neck is needed to show the neck-related abnormalities:
In a CECT procedure, patients are advised not to take any food before 4 hours of the scan and also avoid any form of drinking before 2 hours of the scan. The patient will be administered contrast intravenously (IV). Patients need to inform the doctor if she is pregnant, CT is avoided during pregnancy because of complications for an unborn baby.

CECT neck is performed in a CT scanner, which is a doughnut-shaped machine. The patient will be made to lie on the bed attached to the scanner, and the bed slides into the scanner for the scanning.

The CECT takes around 75 to 90 minutes.
