The impression has to be correlated clinically. It means that your mother's signs and symptoms elicited by your ENT Surgeon matched the radiological signs, then your ENT Surgeon will advise you the appropriate treatment.
Next Steps
Go back to the Doctor who referred you to get the scan done and seek the explanation you desire.
