A CT Scan is a Clinical Investigation.

A CT Scan (Computerised Tomography Scan) uses X-rays and a computer to create detailed images of the inside of the body.

A CT Scan can be used to diagnose or monitor many different health conditions, including cancer and bone disease. It is often used to provide views of the body before another procedure takes place, such as a Biopsy or Radiotherapy treatment.
