HRCT Temporal Bone

HRCT Temporal Bone is a specialized CT scan that provides highly detailed images of the temporal bone and ear structures, including the middle ear, inner ear, mastoid air cells, ossicles, cochlea, and semicircular canals. It is commonly used to diagnose chronic ear infections, cholesteatoma, hearing loss, otosclerosis, congenital ear abnormalities, and temporal bone fractures. HRCT uses thin-slice imaging to detect subtle bony changes that may not be visible on routine CT scans. This scan plays a crucial role in pre-surgical planning for ear surgeries. The procedure is non-invasive, quick, and involves controlled radiation exposure when clinically indicated.
