A thorax with IV contrast is a CT scan of your chest where a special dye is injected into your vein to help get clearer images of your heart, lungs, blood vessels, and other structures in your chest. Your doctor might order this test if they need to investigate chest pain, shortness of breath, suspected blood clots, infections, or to check for abnormalities in your lungs or heart. During the procedure, you'll lie still on a table that moves through a scanner, and you may feel warmth from the contrast dye as it's injected, but the scan itself is painless and usually takes just a few minutes.
