No appointment is needed for the CBVT, and there is no specific preparation except for removing any jewellery from the head and neck area before the scan.
Scanning
The scan is performed with you standing. The radiographer will assist you in positioning correctly, emphasizing the importance of remaining perfectly still during the examination. You will receive instructions to rest your chin on a designated rest, bite onto a small, sterile piece, and hold onto the handle. The machine rotates around your head, completing the entire process in under a minute.
