Is sinus CT a head and neck scan?

Faint!! I'm also doing CT.

However, you still haven't made it clear that the important thing about sinus examination is what you want to check.

I mean, what do you have to diagnose definitively, is there a mass in the nasopharynx? Or is it just a simple examination of the paranasal sinuses?

If that's the case! There is no need to do any head and neck scans at all, and what bird enhancement ???

Our hospital did CT 16-slice spiral scan! Just plain scan the paranasal sinuses, and there is no need for 3D reconstruction!

Maybe your condition needs to be treated this way.

But I can tell you clearly! It's just a paranasal sinus exam! Then there's only one CT scan.

Other head and neck noncontrast scans are not required, and contrast scans are not.

3D reconstruction is not required! Be careful not to let him charge you arbitrarily.

A little note here! If you're doing an enhanced scan, then unless you've had a non-contrast scan in the first few days before**! Otherwise, you have to do a flat sweep! This is because after doing the enhancement, you need to compare with the sweep and the sweep!

To add! There are two possibilities for you to have this symptom! One is inflammation of the nasopharynx, and the other is nasopharyngeal cancer! In short, if you want to do a CT scan, then do a paranasal sinus scan! That's it.

Seen your question added! Here is also a supplement for you, which can be roughly characterized as an inflammatory lesion of the ethmoid sinus! As for inferior turbinate hypertrophy, here is an explanation, most people will have turbinate hypertrophy, and there is no practical clinical significance in cutting this symptom, that is, it will not affect health, unless the respiratory tract is blocked!

Don't be so stingy haha, if you chase more points!!

Noncontrast scans are ordinary scans, which are contrasted with contrast-enhanced scans after intravenous contrast is injected; As for the head and neck non-contrast scan, it refers to the part of the item to be examined, and it is not the entire head and neck scan. One of the principles of the imaging department is to minimize unnecessary radiation doses.

White is bone, black is air, and gray is soft tissue and secretions.

If a doctor gives you a higher dose, there are two impossibilities, one is to do a lifetime of doing this kind of mentality when targeting patients, otherwise he is not worthy of being a doctor; The second is that if he gives you a higher dose, the CT image will not be diagnostic, which means that the quality of ** will be worse.

The pricing is different in various places, about 200-300 yuan, you should do a paranasal sinus CT scan, there are 2 ways to check, one is axial CT non-contrast scan, the other is coronal CT non-compliance, if there is a deviated nasal septum, it is more intuitive to do coronal CT non-contrast scan, and at the same time it can also diagnose paranasal sinusitis.

Judging from the report, it's paranasal sinusitis! That's it.

It is recommended that you drink pure Chinese medicine decoction three times, it is miraculous! Heal for life, no**! There is no charge. After you are cured, you can just say it.

Analysis: Hello, for the patient's condition, it is recommended to carry out anti-inflammatory**, and pay attention to dietary hygiene.

Suggestions:

According to the division of CT examination sites in the past, sinus CT and nasopharyngeal CT examination should be two different examinations, especially since the development of functional endoscopic sinus surgery, sinus CT mostly uses coronal surface scanning, so that the scanning image is as similar as possible to the endoscope into the nasal cavity and sinuses, the nasopharynx cannot be completely scanned, and the report cannot contain the results of nasopharyngeal examination.

Nowadays, multi-layer spiral CT is more commonly used, and cross-sectional scanning can be carried out after other cross-sectional reconstruction. Therefore, sinus CT can scan the nasopharynx as well, and it can also be observed at the same time. However, it is normal for the sinus CT report to not show the results of the nasopharynx, because the examination site required by the clinician is the sinus, and the radiologist should of course focus on observing the sinuses, and if there is no problem with the nasopharynx, it can not be reported, and if there is a problem, it should still be described.

If you are not sure, you can go to the hospital where you are examined to see if it is normal.

Most people have nasal septal curvature, but the degree is different, if the curvature is obvious, it will cause one or both nasal passages to narrow, resulting in poor breathing, causing a series of symptoms such as hypoxia and dizziness. If it is "slightly right-sided of the septum", it means that the degree of curvature is mild; It also depends on the degree of bilateral inferior turbinate hypertrophy and whether it causes nasal passage stenosis, and conservative or surgical measures are taken according to the situation**.

There is no need for surgery, the septum is slightly crooked, the inferior turbinate is hypertrophied, I don't know the extent of the inferior turbinate hypertrophy? The inferior turbinate can be surged, and the nasopharyngeal examination can be done with a rhinoscopy, which is to look at the nasopharynx.

Paranasal sinus CT is not the same as nasopharyngeal CT. Paranasal sinus CT examination mainly looks at the condition of the nasal cavity and sinuses, and the nasopharynx cannot be fully scanned.

Hello,**Rhinitis is recommended that you go to a regular ear, nose and throat hospital**.

DNR low-temperature plasma ablation in the United States is currently the best for rhinitis, and you can rest assured to see it.

CT scan of this area can show the condition of the nasopharynx, but it is not described.
