NCCT Scan Brain Pituitary Sella near me in Dombivli

The NCCT Scan Brain Pituitary Sella is an imaging test that uses X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images of the pituitary gland and the sella turcica—a small bony structure at the base of the brain that houses the pituitary gland. This scan is done without contrast dye and is useful for detecting structural abnormalities in this area.

Doctors may recommend this scan if you have symptoms such as persistent headaches, vision changes, or hormonal imbalances. It helps identify pituitary tumors, calcifications, bleeding, fractures, or bony abnormalities of the sella turcica.

The test is quick, painless, and noninvasive, and usually takes only a few minutes. It is especially helpful when MRI is not suitable, such as in patients with metal implants or pacemakers. However, since it involves radiation, it should only be done when medically necessary. Always inform your doctor if you are pregnant or have any existing health conditions.
