Yes, you can undergo a CT scan even if you have bullet fragments in your back. However, it's important to inform the medical staff about the fragments beforehand, as they may affect the imaging quality or interpretation. Additionally, the presence of metal can sometimes lead to artifacts in the images, but it generally does not pose a significant risk. Always consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
