Whether or not you can wear jewelry during a CT depends on the material and the area being examined. Plastic jewelry and jewelry that is far away from the examination site can be worn.
If the patient is wearing plastic jewelry, it will not interfere with the exam and can be worn. If the patient wears metal jewelry, it depends on the examination site.
If the metal jewelry is close to the location of the examination, it should be removed before the examination. This is because metal can form artifacts during the examination and affect the results. If the jewelry is worn far away from the examination site, it will not affect the examination result and can be left off.
In order to avoid affecting the examination results, it is best to remove metal jewelry before the CT examination. You should read the precautions carefully before the examination and follow the doctor’s instructions.
