This document discusses sinus imaging using CT scans. It begins by describing the different sinus structures in the head: frontal, maxillary, nasal, ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses. It then lists common sinus pathologies that can be identified on CT scans, such as sinusitis, fungal sinusitis, deviated septum, sinus polyps, mucoceles, concha bullosa, and sinus cancer. Two case studies are presented, with questions prompting the reader to identify potential diagnoses.
