Neck Soft Tissue CT Scan (without contrast)

A CT of the soft structures of the neck — glands, lymph nodes, throat and airway — taken without injected dye. It is the less common of the two neck soft-tissue scans, chosen mainly when contrast cannot be given or when the thing being looked for is a stone or a calcification, which shows up perfectly well on its own.
