What it is

A CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis with contrast uses X-rays and an injected iodine dye to make detailed pictures of the organs in the belly and pelvis. It is often used to look for causes of abdominal pain, such as appendicitis, kidney problems, infection or masses.

What the price covers

The hospital price usually covers the scan. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately, and the contrast dye may be listed as a separate pharmacy charge.
