What Does A Soft Tissue Opacification Of The Mastoid Air Cells In CT Scan Indicate?
Looking at my daughter s ct scan report but not understanding what it means. There is soft tissue opacification of the mastoid air cells as well as the middle ear bilaterally. The left external auditory canal is almost obliterated. The right external auditory canal is also very small.
