MRI PNS With Contrast

What is an MRI PNS With Contrast Test?

A contrast-enhanced MRI of the paranasal sinuses (PNS) produces an image of the four pairs of air-filled cavities surrounding the nasal cavity, pituitary gland, and soft tissues. The contrast facilitates the visibility of internal organs.

Why is it done? 

The doctor will give you this test to determine if you have inflammation of the sinuses or paranasal cancer. This is done to determine if the infection or swelling in your sinuses has spread into your brain.

How does one prepare for the test?
