As an MD and medical writer, I believe that "... with contrast" is not the perfect term but the perfect definition to be used in this context. The term is “contrast-enhanced…” and “… with contrast” is the definition of this term.
agree liz askew : Yes, better expressed.

The purpose of contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is to find pathology by enhancing the contrast between a lesion and the normal surrounding structures.
Sometimes a lesion will be hypovascular compared to the normal tissue and in some cases a lesion will be hypervascular to the surrounding tissue in a certain phase of enhancement.
