Yes, tapeworms can be detected on a CT scan, particularly if they have formed cysts in the organs, such as the liver or brain, which is indicative of a condition known as cysticercosis. However, the tapeworm itself may not be visible, as CT scans are more effective at showing the lesions or complications caused by the infection rather than the worm itself. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of imaging studies and laboratory tests.
