Hello and thanks for posting,

I can appreciate your concern.

Yes, a CT scan is a very reliable scan, and can detect very small areas, including thickening of tissue and organs. The CT scan would have been reviewed by a consultant before the final report was produced.

I hope this helps,

Best wishes,

Vanda, do polys or diverticulits show on ct too? x

Hello and thanks for your further post

Diverticulitis and polyps can show up on a CT scan. This scan is very good at detecting complications related to diverticular disease, such as inflamed diverticula, abscesses ,or thickening of the bowel wall. However, as your scan was normal it means that there was no active inflammation or complications seen.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
