About This Test
The Face Plain CT scan provides high-resolution images of facial bones, sinuses, and soft tissues without contrast. It is commonly used to evaluate fractures, congenital anomalies, sinus disease, tumors, or trauma. The scan is non-invasive, quick, and safe, providing detailed anatomical images that help clinicians diagnose pathology, plan surgical procedures, or monitor recovery. While contrast is not used, the images allow accurate assessment of bone structures and soft tissue anatomy. This procedure is essential for initial evaluation of facial trauma, infections, or pre-operative planning.
