    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Ophthalmology

    Background:

    • Computerized tomographic (CT) examinations are standardly performed in the axial plane.
    • Advancements in CT technology allow for easy acquisition of coronal plane images.
    • Coronal CT imaging is particularly beneficial for specific anatomical regions of the head.

    Observation:

    • This study details one year of clinical experience utilizing direct coronal CT.
    • The focus was on the diagnostic utility of coronal CT in various head and neck pathologies.
    • Ease of image acquisition with modern CT units was noted.

    Findings:

    • Direct coronal CT provides superior visualization of facial bones, sinuses, orbits, and the parasellar area compared to axial views alone.
    • The technique facilitates accurate diagnosis of complex anatomical structures and associated pathologies.
