CT Scan
Computerized tomography or CT scan is a procedure that combines many X-ray images from various angles. As a result, it can provide more detailed information than X-rays. Your doctor might use this test in more complicated cases when he or she needs to examine internal organs for possible complications or underlying health conditions that would lead to an umbilical hernia. Similar to X-rays, there might be a risk of ionizing radiation exposure. Make sure to consult your healthcare provider, especially when you are pregnant because the radiation would harm your unborn babies. [4]
