Abstract

The paranasal sinuses are cavities in the facial bones consisting sinuses of frontal (on the forehead), ethmoid (on the bridge of the nose), maxillary on the right and left cheeks, and sphenoid (behind the ethmoid sinuses). CT scan examination of the paranasal sinuses with contrast media is used to detect various abnormalities in the facial bones and soft tissue in detail.

This study aimed to analyze the Ct Scan examination procedure of the paranasal sinuses with nasal cavity tumors in Radiology Installation of Dr. H. Abdul Moeloek Hospital in Bandar Lampung. This study used descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach.
