Hello. I have a bulging stomach so my doctor ordered a CT scan but won't go over the results with me. I don't think he knows how to read them. Is there a particular specialist who can or does anyone know if these images indicate ab separation? Thanks!

Answer: CT scan I'm sorry that you are having issues getting the results from your CT scan. Typically the radiologist writes a report of the findings after the scan is completed and forwards this report to the ordering physician. If you can't find a way to get the information from your physician you may try the facility where the exam was completed and talk to the radiologist.

Answer: Diastasis Dear Helpful5906, it is impossible to tell you is there diastasis recti without looking at the whole CT scan and not only two slices. Radiologists can describe the findings in detail.
