FAQs

Can CECT PNS detect a sinus or nasal tumor?

Yes. CT can identify masses or abnormal soft-tissue changes involving the nasal cavity or paranasal sinuses and can help assess their extent. MRI may be recommended when more detailed soft-tissue characterization is required.

Can it detect fungal or complicated sinus infection?

Yes. Contrast-enhanced CT may be used in selected cases of complicated or invasive fungal sinus disease and can help assess extension into surrounding structures such as the orbit or skull base.

Do I need any preparation before CECT PNS?

Preparation depends on whether contrast is being used. You may be asked to fast for a specified period before a contrast-enhanced examination. Follow the instructions provided by the imaging centre.

Should I inform the radiology team about previous contrast reactions or kidney disease?

Yes. Inform the team about previous reactions to iodinated contrast, kidney disease, allergies, pregnancy, and other relevant medical conditions before contrast administration.
