Book a CECT Sinogram at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, a diagnostic centre accredited by the NABL & NABH, with an advanced centre for diagnostics and better treatment services in the field of Radiology and Pathology. In an advanced Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography (CECT) Sinogram, one can visualize the sinus tracts and fistulas in detail using contrast material and also see the communication between these and surrounding tissues. This special imaging allows your doctor to precisely determine the size and direction of sinus tracts for proper diagnosis, surgical guidance, and treatment. Reliable and accurate contrast-enhanced imaging with cutting-edge CT equipment is provided by our experienced radiologists, with timely reports to aid in the precise diagnosis and treatment plan.
About CECT Sinogram
CECT Sinogram is an endoparasitic procedure carried out by a CT scan that uses various cisterns that are filled with a material known as a contrast agent as a step before the CT scan. It permits the visualization of detailed sinus tracts, fistulas, surrounding soft tissues, muscles, bones, and any communication with the internal organs and body cavity. Well-equipped computed tomography (CT) scanners at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy allow physicians to view images with great detail and accuracy to help assess fistulous and sinus tract conditions.
What is CECT Sinogram?
CECT Sinogram is a minimally invasive diagnostic imaging technique that merges CT scans with a contrast dye to help visualize the sinus tract or fistula. The contrast material outlines the whole course of the tract, assisting in pinpointing its origin, its length, and its branches, along with its accompanying abscesses, and its relationship to neighbouring organs and tissues. Usually recommended in patients with chronic discharging sinus, or in postoperative sinus tracts, recurrent sinus abscesses and/or suspected fistula communication.
Common Reasons for CECT Sinogram
Chronic discharging sinus
Persistent postoperative sinus tract
Suspected fistula
Recurrent abscess or infection
Evaluation of pilonidal sinus
Assessment of osteomyelitis with sinus formation
Pre-operative surgical planning
Follow-up after fistula or sinus surgery
Conditions Evaluated
Sinus Tracts
Maps the complete course, depth, and branching of chronic sinus tracts.
Fistulas
Identifies abnormal communications between organs, tissues, or body cavities.
Chronic Abscesses
Detects associated abscess cavities and their extent.
Post-Surgical Sinus Tracts
Evaluates persistent or recurrent sinus formation following surgery.
Osteomyelitis
Assesses sinus tracts arising from chronic bone infections.
Soft Tissue Infections
Helps evaluate chronic inflammatory changes and surrounding soft tissue involvement.
Who Should Consider This Scan?
Your doctor may recommend CECT Sinogram if you:
Have a persistent discharging sinus
Have a suspected fistula
Experience recurrent soft tissue infections or abscesses
Require evaluation before surgery
Have a postoperative sinus that is not healing
Need follow-up after fistula or sinus tract treatment
Benefits of CECT Sinogram

Test information: Fasting : 04 hours
Reporting: Within 24 hours*
Fasting for 4–6 hours may be required before a CECT Sinogram, depending on your doctor's advice.
Contrast material is usually gently injected into the sinus tract or fistula opening before the CT scan to clearly outline its course. Follow all preparation instructions provided by your doctor or the diagnostic centre.
Drink adequate water unless your doctor has advised fluid restriction. Good hydration may help before and after contrast administration.
Inform your doctor if you have a history of allergy to contrast dye (iodine-based contrast), asthma, kidney disease, diabetes, thyroid disorders, or previous reactions to contrast media.
If you are taking Metformin or other diabetes medications, inform your doctor, as temporary precautions may be required before or after the scan.
Inform the radiology team if you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, or are breastfeeding.
Bring your doctor's prescription and any previous CT scans, MRI scans, ultrasound reports, sinogram reports, operative notes, or biopsy reports related to the affected area, if available.
Wear comfortable clothing and remove any metallic objects near the area being examined if instructed.
Arrive at the diagnostic centre 20–30 minutes before your scheduled appointment to complete registration and pre-scan preparation.
सीईसीटी साइनोग्राम जांच से पहले डॉक्टर की सलाह के अनुसार 4–6 घंटे तक खाली पेट रहना पड़ सकता है।
जांच के दौरान साइनस मार्ग (Sinus Tract) या फिस्टुला के बाहरी छिद्र में विशेष कॉन्ट्रास्ट द्रव्य डाला जाता है, जिससे उसका पूरा मार्ग स्पष्ट रूप से दिखाई दे सके।
यदि डॉक्टर ने मना न किया हो, तो जांच से पहले और बाद में पर्याप्त मात्रा में पानी पिएँ, ताकि शरीर से कॉन्ट्रास्ट द्रव्य आसानी से बाहर निकल सके।
यदि आपको कॉन्ट्रास्ट द्रव्य (आयोडीन), किसी दवा या इंजेक्शन से एलर्जी, गुर्दे की बीमारी, मधुमेह, थायरॉयड की समस्या, या पहले किसी कॉन्ट्रास्ट जांच के दौरान कोई परेशानी हुई हो, तो इसकी जानकारी पहले ही डॉक्टर या रेडियोलॉजी टीम को दें।
यदि आप मधुमेह की दवा (जैसे मेटफॉर्मिन) ले रहे हैं, तो जांच से पहले डॉक्टर को अवश्य बताएं, क्योंकि दवा के संबंध में विशेष निर्देश दिए जा सकते हैं।
यदि आप गर्भवती हैं, गर्भधारण की संभावना है या शिशु को स्तनपान करा रही हैं, तो जांच से पहले इसकी जानकारी अवश्य दें।
यदि आपके पास पहले की सीटी स्कैन, एमआरआई, अल्ट्रासाउंड, साइनोग्राम, ऑपरेशन या बायोप्सी की रिपोर्टें हैं, तो उन्हें साथ लेकर आएँ।
जांच वाले भाग के आसपास यदि कोई धातु की वस्तु, आभूषण या ड्रेसिंग हो, तो डॉक्टर या तकनीशियन के निर्देशानुसार उसे हटा दें।
पंजीकरण और आवश्यक तैयारी के लिए निर्धारित समय से 20–30 मिनट पहले डायग्नोस्टिक सेंटर पहुँचें।
CECT Sinogram is a specialised contrast-enhanced CT imaging procedure used to evaluate sinus tracts, fistulas, and their communication with surrounding tissues or organs.
During the examination, the radiologist first cleans the external opening of the sinus tract or fistula. A water-soluble contrast agent is then carefully introduced into the tract through a small catheter or cannula.
Once the contrast adequately fills the tract, a high-resolution CT scan is performed to obtain detailed cross-sectional images of the affected region.
The scan accurately demonstrates the origin, length, depth, branching pattern, associated abscesses, soft tissue involvement, bone involvement, and any communication with adjacent organs or body cavities.
The procedure is minimally invasive and generally takes 20–40 minutes, depending on the complexity of the sinus tract or fistula.
After the examination, the catheter is removed, and you can usually resume your normal activities unless your doctor provides specific post-procedure instructions.
The images are interpreted by an experienced radiologist, and the report is generally available within 04 hours.
