No, CT scans are not magnetic.
CT (Computed Tomography) scans and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scans are both medical imaging techniques, but they use different technologies to create images of the inside of your body. The key difference is that:
- CT Scans: Utilize X-rays to generate cross-sectional images.
- MRI Scans: Employ strong magnetic fields and radio waves.
Therefore, since CT scans rely on X-rays rather than magnetic fields, they are not magnetic.
