What is a CT Scan? The Xoran MiniCAT device is capable of scanning and providing high-resolution imaging of the sinuses, temporal bones, and skull base.
With an in-office CT scan, patients can sit in an upright position in an open environment, rather than the confining full-body scanners that are used at hospitals. This allows for increased patient comfort and an improved treatment experience.
The MiniCAT provides immediate access to images at the patient’s point-of-care resulting in faster diagnosis and treatment. The MiniCAT is capable of performing a complete acquisition and reconstruction in less than 25 seconds. The MiniCAT does not sacrifice efficiency for speed, however, these images yield superb image quality allowing physicians to examine the most intricate anatomy in fine detail.
A MiniCAT sinus scan has a lower radiation dose than sinus scans by a full-body conventional CT scanner, due to the MiniCAT being designed according to the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle. The MiniCAT allows both a view of the sinuses as well as a reduction of radiation dose, and it does so without compromise.
Dr. Daniel Leeman has been helping treat sinus and other ENT concerns in the Austin area since 2000. At our practice, we use cutting-edge technology and state-of-the-art treatments to provide our patients with the highest level of ENT care. Dr. Leeman and his team will work with you to make sure your experience is positive and that you feel like a valued patient. We believe that personalized care is as much a part of the treatment process as medical experience and expertise.
We pride ourselves in providing our patients with the highest quality of service and care, and we work to ease any fears or concerns our patients may have so they have peace of mind going into any treatment.
