FAQs

What is CBCT PNS?

CBCT PNS (Cone Beam Computed Tomography of the Paranasal Sinuses) is an advanced 3D imaging examination that provides detailed images of the paranasal sinuses, nasal cavity, and surrounding facial bones. It helps diagnose sinus disorders and evaluate the anatomy of the nose and sinus region for accurate treatment planning.

Why is CBCT PNS performed?

This examination is performed to evaluate chronic sinusitis, recurrent sinus infections, nasal obstruction, facial pain, deviated nasal septum, nasal polyps, sinus cysts, congenital abnormalities, trauma, and other conditions affecting the paranasal sinuses.

Can CBCT PNS help before sinus surgery?

Yes. The examination provides detailed visualization of the sinus anatomy, helping ENT specialists plan procedures such as Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) with greater accuracy and safety.

What is the difference between CBCT PNS and conventional CT PNS?

CBCT provides excellent visualization of the bony structures of the paranasal sinuses with a relatively lower radiation dose than conventional CT for selected indications. Your doctor will recommend the most appropriate examination based on your clinical condition.

What are the advantages of CBCT PNS?

CBCT PNS provides detailed 3D visualization of the paranasal sinuses and surrounding bony structures, supports accurate diagnosis of sinus disorders, assists medical, dental, and surgical treatment planning, uses a relatively low radiation dose, and is quick, painless, and non-invasive.
