X-ray – PNS (Water’s View) is an imaging test used to evaluate the paranasal sinuses, especially the maxillary sinuses, to detect infections, sinusitis, or structural abnormalities.
X-ray – PNS (Paranasal Sinuses) Water’s View is a specialized imaging technique used to examine the sinus cavities located around the nose. This view provides a clear image of the maxillary sinuses, frontal sinuses, and surrounding facial bones.
The Water’s view is particularly effective in detecting sinus infections (sinusitis), fluid levels, mucosal thickening, and sinus blockages. It can also help identify fractures of facial bones and other structural abnormalities.
This test is commonly recommended for individuals experiencing symptoms such as facial pain, nasal congestion, headache, or recurrent sinus infections. It is a quick, non-invasive procedure that aids in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
