A CT scan, or computed tomography scan, utilizes X-rays to create detailed, cross-sectional images of the body. These images provide valuable information for diagnosing a wide range of medical conditions, from injuries to tumors. When reviewing a CT scan report, patients may encounter the term "unremarkable," which can sometimes be confusing.

Artifact streaking in CT scans can be a frustrating and potentially misleading imaging artifact that significantly impacts image quality and diagnostic accuracy. These streaks, which appear as dark or light lines within the image, can obscure critical anatomical details, leading to misdiagnosis and compromised patient care.
