What is Digital X-Ray of Skull for Sinuses (PNS O/M View)?

A Digital X-ray of the Skull for Paranasal Sinuses (PNS) in the Occipitomental (O/M) view is an imaging procedure used to assess the sinus cavities, typically for diagnosing sinusitis, infections, or structural abnormalities. In this view, the patient’s head is tilted, allowing the X-ray to capture detailed images of the sinuses, especially the frontal and maxillary sinuses.

The procedure requires minimal preparation, such as removing metal objects. It is quick, non-invasive, and generally painless.

After the X-ray is taken, a radiologist examines the images for signs of blockage, infection, or other issues, aiding in treatment decisions like medication or surgery.

What to expect & how to prepare

An X-ray takes a picture of bones or chest structures in a few seconds. A radiographer positions you, asks you to hold still and briefly hold your breath for chest views. Nothing is injected.

• Eat and drink normally: a plain X-ray needs no diet restriction before your appointment.
• Metal: remove jewellery, coins, belts and clothing with zips or hooks over the area, or change into a gown as advised.
• Positioning: you may be asked to stand, sit or lie in a specific position — for weight-bearing views you will stand on the affected limb.
• Bring earlier films: previous X-rays of the same area help with comparison.

A plain X-ray uses a small dose of ionising radiation. Tell the radiographer before the exposure if you are pregnant or think you might be.

Taken by a radiographer and reported by a radiologist; bring the doctor's advice that requested it.
