CT Scans are safer at Kaplan Sinus Relief
There are a lot of factors that can cause underlying sinus issues, and Dr. Kaplan, MD is determined to treat those problems safely and accurately. Kaplan Sinus Relief utilizes in-office CT scans that offer a more in-depth view of a patient’s internal anatomy by using X-ray images to create 3-D images. This allows doctors to identify problems quicker and create a treatment strategy.
While traditional scans are typically a full-body procedure, our simple, in-office CT scan allows the patient to sit upright for comfort and convenience while only lasting 20 seconds. It’s that simple. And the best news is, our CT scans have 82% less radiation than average, meaning they deliver better results immediately and in a safer manner. Dr. Kaplan can easily determine your problem, create a solution, and put you on the path to lasting sinus relief with balloon sinuplasty.
