CECT Sella (CT Scan Sella with Contrast)

CECT Sella, or Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography of the Sella, is an imaging technique that uses X-rays and contrast media to create detailed images of the pituitary sella. The sella is a bony compartment at the base of the skull that protects the pituitary gland. This test is valuable for diagnosing conditions like pituitary adenomas, empty sella syndrome, and other abnormalities affecting the pituitary gland or sella turcica.
