What is a HRCT (High Resolution CT Scan) PNS Test in Howrah ?
What is HRCT(HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN) PNS?
A High Resolution CT scan of the paranasal sinuses (HRCT PNS) creates detailed X-ray images of the sinus cavities and surrounding bones. It does not measure a substance. It is non-invasive and shows internal structures directly, providing information that blood and urine tests cannot.
What does HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN show?
It shows the shape, size, and any blockages or inflammation in the sinuses. Doctors use it to find chronic or acute sinusitis, nasal polyps, structural problems, infections, bone erosion, or tumors. It helps plan surgery and guide treatment when symptoms persist or complications are suspected. The scan is quick and gives clear pictures that other exams may miss.
What symptoms suggest HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN may be needed?
HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN is generally requested as part of a imaging assessment. Doctors commonly investigate this area when someone reports localised pain, swelling, or injury, a lump or restricted movement, or an abnormal finding on an earlier test that needs to be examined directly. Whether HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN specifically is the right test depends on your history and what your doctor is looking for. In Howrah, you can book this test online and check whether home collection reaches Tikiapara, Santragachi or your address.
How is HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN done?
No needle or sample is involved. At an accredited imaging centre serving Tikiapara and Santragachi, Howrah, a radiographer performs the scan, which is painless and usually completed within 10 to 15 minutes. A qualified radiologist interprets the images and issues a report you can access on GetVisit. (Home collection does not apply to imaging.)
How accurate is HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN?
GetVisit partners only with accredited imaging centres in and around Tikiapara, Santragachi, and Howrah that use maintained, calibrated equipment and qualified radiographers. Every scan is interpreted by a qualified radiologist, and reports are accepted by hospital networks, specialists, and insurers across India.
Are there any risks to HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN?
Imaging is safe and non-invasive. Ultrasound and MRI use no ionising radiation; X-ray and CT use carefully controlled low doses justified by the diagnostic benefit. Inform staff at the Tikiapara or Santragachi, Howrah centre if you are pregnant or have implants or metal devices, so precautions can be taken.
Did you know?
A CT scan of the paranasal sinuses (CT PNS) is used to evaluate sinus disease, persistent or recurrent sinusitis, nasal polyps and chronic nasal obstruction.
HRCT (High Resolution CT Scan) PNS Test Preparation in Howrah
Fasting and dietary instructions:
Most imaging scans need no fasting. Some abdominal ultrasounds require a few hours of fasting or a full bladder, so follow the specific instruction shown when you book, or ask the centre.
Medication guidance:
Continue your regular medication unless told otherwise. Tell the centre if you have diabetes, kidney problems, or allergies, especially if a contrast study is planned.
What to bring:
Bring your doctor's referral, a valid photo ID, your insurance card if using cashless OPD, and any previous scans or reports so the radiologist can compare.
Timing:
Book a slot that suits you at an accredited GetVisit centre in Sankrail or Salkia, Howrah. Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners, and remove jewellery before the scan.

Why Take a HRCT (High Resolution CT Scan) PNS Test in Howrah ?
When does a doctor order HRCT(HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN) PNS?
HRCT(HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN) PNS is an imaging study often ordered when patients have chronic nasal congestion, recurrent sinus infections, facial pain, or suspected complications. It is used before sinus or nasal surgery and to monitor response to treatment.
Who should get HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN done in Howrah?
Howrah's dense industrial and trading economy, monsoon waterlogging and waterborne-infection burden, commute links into Kolkata, and rising diabetes and cardiovascular prevalence make regular preventive testing worthwhile citywide. Those who benefit most from HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN include patients needing structural assessment that bloodwork cannot provide, and anyone under surveillance for a previously detected abnormality in Howrah.
What can HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN help detect?
Abnormal findings may come from chronic inflammation, untreated infections, nasal polyps, structural blockages, trauma, or tumors. A family history of nasal or sinus disease may prompt earlier testing.
What do HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN results mean?
An imaging report describes what the scan shows and whether it is normal or reveals a specific finding. A qualified radiologist interprets the images, and your doctor explains what any finding means for you and whether a further test or treatment is needed. The FAQs below cover what this scan can and cannot show.
How often should HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN be repeated?
For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends, typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.
What happens after your HIGH RESOLUTION CT SCAN results are ready?
Results are delivered to your phone and stored securely on GetVisit. Any value the laboratory flags as critical is escalated for urgent review, and for everything else your doctor or a verified specialist can guide the next step at your convenience.
