Can you tell me if the brain is shown at all in a Sinus CT.I worry a lot and have had some headaches and my eyes have hurt, so i wasnt sure if could be a brain tumor.Thanks.

It really depends on how the sinus CT was done whether or not much of the brain is included. Most places do coronal images of the sinuses that are obtained while the patient lies on the stomach with the head extended into the scanner. Not much of the brain is included.
On the other hand, if axial images were obtained (lying on the back), more of the brain would be included.
