Understanding CECT Scan (HRCT) Temporal Bone - Axial & Coronal in Chennai

What is CECT Scan (HRCT) Temporal Bone - Axial & Coronal in Chennai?

A medical imaging procedure is a Contrast Enhanced Computerized Tomography (CECT) High Resolution CT (HRCT) of Temporalbone Axial Coronal. It helps detect the skull's temporal bones and the middle and inner ear. This procedure combines the use of an X-ray scan and the administration of contrast material to illustrate three-dimensional images of the skull and the surrounding soft tissues. It can also be used to diagnose conditions related to hearing loss, chronic ear infections, inner ear diseases, and cellular mass growth.

The CECT HRCT scan is a low-risk procedure. However, the contrast material injected during the procedure may sometimes cause temporary itching and redness. An abnormal CECT test can indicate defects or injuries in the facial nerve and middle/inner ear, temporal bone tumor, and facial nerve paralysis.
