I had a CT Scan on Monday night and was just wondering how long does it take to get the results back. They were checking my pancreas and all along my abdomen including the right side where I have uncomfort.
Also does CT Scan tell you the degree to Liver Fibrosis. I have F3 Fibrosis but have massively lost weight and changed diet. I'm wondering if a CT scan can tell if it's getting better or does that still need a Fibroscan.

I cannot help with the Fibrosis issue but I recently had a CT scan for suspected bladder cancer and have a Urology clinic appointment to discuss the CT scan and biopsy findings two weeks later. From a previous CT scan and subsequent discussion, I think that was about a two week interval. Best of luck with having your issue resolved.
Thank you for all the replies. I got the CT scan as my gastro doctor is brilliant and wants to cover everything off. I think I just have F3 Fibrosis and mild GAVE (rare stomach condition) that is linked to liver issues and that was found with a endoscopy. I think the discomfort is in the area of my liver and will just be my liver. I had a colonoscopy and that came back fine. I'm loosing weight and eating healthy so I hope it's going to fix itself with time. I imagine the ultrasound and bloods I had would of found cancer and any serious issues so hopefully I'm ok. The fibroscan will hopefully be repeated in 3-4 months and hopefully will show my liver is healing.
