CECT PNS Axial + Coronal is a CT scan performed using intravenous contrast dye to provide enhanced visualization of the paranasal sinuses and adjacent soft tissues. It is particularly useful in evaluating sinus tumors, complicated sinus infections, abscesses, fungal sinusitis, and extension of disease into surrounding structures such as the orbit or brain. Axial and coronal views allow precise anatomical assessment, aiding ENT specialists in accurate diagnosis and surgical planning. This scan is usually recommended when non-contrast CT findings are inconclusive or when advanced sinus pathology is suspected. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and conducted under medical supervision.
