A member asked:
My doctor thought i had chronic sinusitis so he ordered a ct scan. does the ct scan also go over the throat?

Not usually.: A "CT Sinus" goes from the middle of your forehead to your maxillary teeth. It does not get to the level of the throat unless your doctor orders a "CT Soft Tissue Neck".
