Does scan cover dental?
Typically, scan coverage does not include dental services as it primarily refers to medical imaging or diagnostic scans. Dental procedures are usually covered under separate dental insurance plans. However, some medical insurance policies may cover certain dental scans if they are deemed medically necessary, such as imaging for jaw or facial issues. It's best to check your specific insurance policy for detailed coverage information.
What field includes CAT (computerized axial tomography) scans and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scans as diagnostic tools?
CAT scans and MRI scans are useful for a wide variety of medical investigations; the MRI in particular is very useful for neurological examinations, since it is otherwise very difficult to examine the brain in any detail. CAT scans can be used for all sorts of things, to investigate illness or injury in any part of the body. I had one recently for a kidney stone.
