Service Providers for CT Scan of Nasopharynx
A CT scan of the nasopharynx is used to evaluate the area behind the nose and above the back of the throat. It helps diagnose conditions like tumors, infections, blockages, or abnormalities in the nasopharynx and surrounding structures. During the procedure, you will lie on a table while the scanner takes detailed cross-sectional images of the area. Preparation involves removing metal objects, such as jewelry. The procedure is painless, but contrast dye may be used to enhance image clarity. Risks include allergic reactions to contrast dye and radiation exposure. Results are interpreted by analyzing the images for abnormalities or diseases. Afterward, you can resume normal activities.
