A member asked:
Why would my md ask for a ct in case of nasal troubles?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sinus CT: MD may order sinus CT to look for anatomical problems that may make breathing difficult, and to detect fluid accumulation in the sinus cavities that can suggest infection. A sinus CT is a safe and painless test, and it can be helpful for someone who has had sinus problems for a long time from an uncertain cause.
