Why does a Cat scan shows air in the bladder?

A CT scan may show air in the bladder due to several reasons, such as the presence of a bladder fistula, which is an abnormal connection between the bladder and another organ, often the gastrointestinal tract. It can also indicate a urinary tract infection with gas-forming bacteria. Additionally, postoperative changes or trauma could introduce air into the bladder. Overall, the presence of air in the bladder is typically an abnormal finding that warrants further investigation.
