    As said CT scans are not exactly cheap.  The last one I had was in December last year and total bill was 38k.  That included chest so about 9k added for that and blood tests totaled about 4k (cancer treatment so you may not need those).  This was in Bangkok at a top/second tier price hospital.  

    Thank you

    You cannot just go to another hospital and get the CT scan, you will have to consult one of their doctors to order it. Bring all your records with you as suggested by Lopburi3 above.

     

    Before going to this trouble you might like to call and find out what the cost of CT there is, be sure to specify abdominal CT with contrast. If the cost difference is not large it may not be worth it....unless you want a second opinion on the need for the scan anyhow.

    Thank you

    You will likely have to have ordered by a doctor in hospital but he can base need on paperwork you currently have - consultations are not expensive in any case - it is tests and procedures that do cost.  Take any test results with you.  Bangkok Hospital should be able to provide doctors paperwork as well as test results but may take a couple days to copy.

    I will do that, thanks for the advice.
