Furthermore, the difficulty of discerning abscesses from phlegmons on radiographic images warrants a critical review of this practice. In our study, we reviewed 6,280 patients who presented with throat pain to one of eight AdventHealth Orlando Emergency Departments from January to April of 2013. Patients with a clinical diagnosis of PTA (n=116) were further analyzed for CT utilization versus clinical exam for diagnosis. Our study confirms a high incidence of CT scan utilization for the diagnosis of PTA and highlights the potential inaccuracy it has in discerning abscesses from phlegmon in the oropharynx. Given these findings, we propose that clinicians could serve as better fiscal stewards while also avoiding potential effects of radiation by using clinical history, presenting symptoms, and physical exam for the diagnosis and management of PTA.","post_title":"Are CT Scans Necessary for the Diagnosis of Peritonsillar Abscess?","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ent256","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2021-11-04 19:05:31","post_modified_gmt":"2021-11-04 23:05:31","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/archive.fcomnow.com\/2021\/session\/are-ct-scans-necessary-for-the-diagnosis-of-peritonsillar-abscess\/","menu_order":256,"post_type":"session","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"attending":"In-Person","in_person":"checked"},"day":null,"duration":null,"end_date":null,"end_time":null,"session_code":null,"session_description":null,"session_id":null,"session_name":null,"session_objectives":null,"session_type":null,"session_type_detail":null,"society":null,"start_date":null,"start_time":null,"test_speaker_link":null,"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
