Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My CT scan reveals a radiopaque foreign body that appears to be a thread. Both the surgeon and radiologist are currently uncertain about its nature. Do you have any insights or ideas regarding what it could potentially be?
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I read your query.
To provide more accurate guidance, it would be helpful to know the specific location within the body where the radiopaque foreign body is detected and its approximate size. I suggest you consider a follow-up CT scan to gain further clarity and information about the foreign body.
Please provide more details so that I can offer more tailored advice.
Thank you.
