TEACHES




Hi! My name is Beary. My doctor wanted to learn more about me today.

My grownup brought me to the hospital to have my picture taken with a CT scanner.

I thought the camera looked like a donut!
A CT scanner is a really big, round camera that takes pictures of the inside of my body.


First, I laid down on the bed outside of the camera. I got to wear a seatbelt, just like in the car.
Then, the bed moved! It brought me inside of the camera. Nothing touched me while I had my pictures taken.


My job was to hold as still as I could so that the pictures wouldn't be blurry.
While the camera was taking pictures, it made a swishing noise, kind of like a washing machine.

I had to hold my breath during the pictures, but only for a few seconds.


Then the bed moved me out of the camera and I was all done!

My grownup told me that I did a great job holding still for my pictures!
