Samer S. Hoz Popular answer

fariborz

our question is about the air sinuses and we are looking about any modality other than the thin slice CT scan because we feel it is not enough

Samer S. Hoz

Guru Dutta Satyarthee

thin slice CT with bone window is definitely investigation of choice for choice for looking for integrity of bony wall of sinus, delineating moulding or distortion by mass effect , however may not be appropriate for Investigation of CSF leak. During active phase of CSF leak CT Cisternography is definitely investigation of choice

In cases with intermittent CSF leak, presenting during non-active CSF leak, MRI may better in delineating soft tissue morphology an probable site of CSF leak.
