Common questions about CT Scan in Burbank
Answers for patients searching for ct scan near them.
Can I really just walk in, or should I call first?
You can walk in at most of our Burbank-area centers during normal business hours — bring your written order and a photo ID. But a quick call to 800-558-2223 lets us pull your insurance verification, give you a current wait time, and confirm the closest site that has the equipment your order requires. Saves you a trip if a particular location is unexpectedly closed or backed up.
How much does a CT scan cost in Burbank without insurance?
We offer transparent, discounted self-pay rates that depend on the body part and whether contrast was ordered. Call 800-558-2223 with the body part and whether contrast was ordered for an exact price before you book.
How fast can I get a CT scan in Burbank?
Same day in most cases. Our Burbank-area centers reserve daily slots for urgent CT orders — stones, suspected appendicitis, post-trauma, lung nodule follow-up. If your provider faxes the order before noon we can almost always image you that afternoon.
Is CT contrast safe? Will I have an allergic reaction?
IV iodinated contrast is well tolerated by the overwhelming majority of patients. Mild reactions (warmth, metallic taste) are common and harmless. True allergic reactions are rare. Tell us about any prior reaction, kidney disease, or metformin use — we may pre-medicate or check a creatinine first.
Should I eat before my CT scan?
If your order doesn't include contrast, eat and drink normally. If contrast is ordered, avoid solid food for 4 hours before but keep drinking clear liquids — being well hydrated actually helps your kidneys clear the contrast afterward.
How much radiation am I getting from a CT?
It depends on the body part. A low-dose chest CT delivers roughly the equivalent of 6 months of natural background radiation; a routine abdomen/pelvis CT closer to 3 years. Our scanners use iterative reconstruction and dose-modulation software so we can deliver the lowest dose that still produces a diagnostic image.
