I have a general question. Today, May 23rd at 10 am l had my Coronary CT Angiogram, with nitroglycerin and contrast. I truly hope this will give me definitive answers. Today being Friday and Monday being a holiday I'm sure it will be sometime next week before I get my results. I'm hoping for good news but just but knowing exactly where l stand would help my mental health. Anyway, just for my piece of mind. During a CT if the technician(s) see something bad would l have been have notified then. Is it a good sign that after the test the nurse told me to have a nice day and walked out. Just curious.

It depends on where you are having it done. When I have CT scans or Echocardiograms etc at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville, I know within 2 hours from the doctors that read the results. If it is here in Tallahassee (180 miles away) where I live, I am lucky if I get the report 3 weeks or a month later. That's why since May 2024, I don't do them here. The technician isn't supposed to talk to you about it.
