When Is A Sinus CT Scan Recommended? - Ear Nose Throat Expert

When Is A Sinus CT Scan Recommended? Have you ever wondered when a sinus CT scan is recommended by your doctor? In this informative video, we'll explain everything you need to know about the situations where a detailed imaging test of your sinuses can be helpful. We'll start by discussing what a sinus CT scan involves and how it provides a clear, three-dimensional view of your sinus cavities. We'll cover common reasons doctors suggest this procedure, including persistent sinus infections that don't improve with medication, ongoing nasal congestion, facial pain, or pressure that lasts for weeks or recurs frequently. You'll learn how a scan can help identify structural issues like nasal polyps, tumors, or growths, and how it assists in planning surgeries such as functional endoscopic sinus surgery. We'll also explain how the scan can reveal the severity of inflammation, fluid buildup, or thickened membranes, as well as detect complications affecting nearby areas like the ears, eyes, or skull base. Additionally, the video discusses why individuals with previous sinus surgeries, trauma, or congenital abnormalities might need a scan. The procedure is quick, painless, and often performed in the doctor’s office, making it an efficient way to gather vital information. Whether you're experiencing unexplained headaches, facial tenderness, or breathing difficulties, understanding when a sinus CT scan is appropriate can help you and your healthcare provider make informed decisions.
