FAQs

Can it detect orbital fractures?

Yes. CT provides detailed visualization of the orbital bones and can help identify fractures of the orbital floor, medial wall, lateral wall, roof, and adjacent facial bones.

Can NCCT Orbit & Brain detect an eye-socket foreign body?

Yes. It can help detect and localize many intra-orbital foreign bodies, particularly radiopaque materials, and assess their relationship with nearby structures.

Can this examination detect brain swelling?

It can demonstrate certain signs of brain swelling or cerebral edema and other acute structural abnormalities. Further imaging may be required depending on the clinical situation.

Will I need an MRI after NCCT Orbit & Brain?

Depending on the findings and symptoms, your doctor may recommend MRI of the brain or orbits for more detailed evaluation of the optic nerves, brain structures, muscles, soft tissues, or other abnormalities that CT may not characterize fully.
