FAQs

Is NCCT PNS useful before sinus surgery?

Yes. It provides detailed information about sinus anatomy, disease extent, and important surrounding bony structures, which can assist ENT specialists in treatment and surgical planning.

Do I need any preparation before NCCT PNS?

Usually, no special preparation is required because intravenous contrast is not used. You may be asked to remove jewellery, spectacles, or other metallic objects from the head and facial region.

Will I need additional tests after NCCT PNS?

Depending on the findings, your doctor may recommend nasal endoscopy, MRI, dental evaluation, allergy assessment, or other ENT investigations.

Can children undergo NCCT PNS?

Yes, when clinically indicated. Since children are more sensitive to radiation, the examination should be appropriately justified and performed using age- and size-adjusted protocols.
