Abstract
Modern imaging includes many studies performed to examine limited fields of view (i.e.,
paranasal sinus studies). These studies are frequently retrospectively coned to the
limited field of view and are often examined only at one window and level setting.
However, classic radiology teaching demands that all irradiated structures be examined
by a qualified physician; for examples, on an intravenous pyelogram the examiner should
look at not only the kidneys, ureters, and bladder, but also the bones, soft tissues,
and gas patterns. This article illustrates unsuspected intracranial pathology noted
on computed tomographic examinations of the paranasal sinuses and temporal bones.
