To answer your question, a non-contrast CT scan does not rule out cancer in the abdomen/pelvis, barring a huge mass or obvious metastases. In fact, even a contrast enhanced CT scan is not very sensitive for several types of cancer.You should discuss with your physician whether or not additional imaging would be warranted. I don't know much about your history but in general, it is exceedingly rare for a 22 year old to suddenly develop some sort of intra-abdominal malignancy.
