or would you need MRI or some other test to show that
Answer: Would a CT Scan with contrast show if a muscle repair that was done during TT is blown or not? Generally speaking, careful physical examination is the best "test" when it comes to making a diagnosis in situations like this. Occasionally, imaging studies such as ultrasounds or CT scans may be helpful. Best wishes.

Answer: Muscle repair during tummy tuck A physical exam might suffice. If there is a palpable gap between the pair of abdominal muscle, which runs from the breastbone down to the area above the pubis, there is diastasis recti or weakness of the abdominal muscle. Good luck and best wishes.

Answer: Would a CT Scan with contrast show if a muscle repair that was done during TT is blown or not? It should pick it up if the muscle repair has come apart unless it is in a very small area. The best first step if you think you have ruptured the repair is see your surgeon to be examined. Best of luck!

Answer: CT scan show a disrupted Diastasis Repair I would try to get that information from a good examination. The tests are expensive and may not be covered by insurance as well. A change in appearance occurs with a disrupted repair, which should lead one to the diagnosis normally. Sometimes controlled muscle strengthening exercises may help.
