 “NOT ALL BRAIN”

*After scan sella alone…. Scan Brain Axial to complete exam

Contrast used with coronal scan in CT & MRI
 & / or FLAIR

• Coronal is the Best

 2 Methods of CT Scan ,
 Routine
PNS Axial & Coronal / Bone window
 Full study
“PNS Axial , Coronal + Brain Axial” + Contrast
/ Bone & Soft tissue window
•Perpend. On Hard palate
•Scan osteo-meatal complex in 3 mm
•
 Orbit
Apex

Not Routine
Orbit
Floor
= Axial is the Main
= Fat suppress is a Must
 T1 WI

Very important to assess Optic Nerve , as in MS & Neuritis

 Mainly CT …… MR has very limited role.
MAXILLO-FACIAL CT
Orbital Roof

Alveolar Margin
 “3: 5 mm”

“MUST”

NB. NO specific scan of Para pharyngeal spaces.

Parallel to
Mandible
NOT usually needed in CT
& Infra Hyoid Region
 Do not say it

& Bone

= CORONAL RECONSTRUCTION
is a MUST even if Normal

Perpendicular on the spine

 FREAT ROLE IN LARYNX

NOT showing Lesion vascularity ,

But explain displacing of the large vessels.
Any enhancing lesion in Arterial phase = Pathology
NB. Reconstruction is very important.
“But FULL Bladder is better”
= But SagittalT2 Has no important role in Male pelvis
Less Likely in Cervical
 Scans
pass
along the
disc

CT SPINE  3 Methods

“1- DISC SCAN 2-Screening 3-Selective scanning

SCOUT in Scoliosis is coronal
Are The Must
Scaphoid Scan
 Supine or Swimmer Prone position
 Coronal scout
 Axial or sagital lines with planes of the
humerus
