Glossary list without page number and acronym links to glossary

Question

As the title says I only wish to remove the page numbers not the acronym links to the glossary.

Using package option nonumberlist the numbers are removed but so are the links.

This code below gives me 'CT Computed Tomography. 1, Glossary: CT & Tomography' under Acronyms

\documentclass[british]{scrreprt}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}
\usepackage[a4paper]{geometry}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage[authoryear]{natbib}
\usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}
\usepackage{babel} 
\usepackage[toc,acronym,style=long]{glossaries} 
\makeglossaries    
%%%%%%%%%%%Glossary%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%    
\newglossaryentry{ctg}{name={CT},
    description={A medical imaging technique to investigate the anatomy using x-rays}}

%%% define the acronym and use the see= option
\newglossaryentry{ct}{type=\acronymtype, name={CT}, description={Computed  Tomography},first={Computed Tomography (CT)\glsadd{ctg}}, see=[Glossary:]{ctg,tomo}} 

\newglossaryentry{tomo}{name={Tomography},
    description={Imaging by sections through an object}}    
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{document}    

blah blah \gls{ct} blah

\glsadd{tomo}    
\printglossary[type=\acronymtype]    
\printglossary[type=main]    
\end{document}

What I would like is 'CT Computed Tomography. Glossary: CT & Tomography', just the page number missing.

Any Ideas? Thanks James

The see key puts the cross-reference in the location list (this is how both makeindex and xindy behave), so if you suppress the location list (using the nonumberlist option) this will also suppress the cross-reference. You can use the seeautonumberlist package option (with nonumberlist) to show the location list for just the entries that have the see key, but you will still get the locations listed for those entries as well as the cross-reference.

Instead, I suggest you just put the cross-reference inside the description and suppress the location list with nonumberlist:

\documentclass{scrreprt}
\usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}
\usepackage[toc,acronym,style=long]{glossaries} 
\makeglossaries    

%%%%%%%%%%%Glossary%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%    
\newglossaryentry{ctg}{name={CT},
    description={A medical imaging technique to investigate the
anatomy using x-rays}}

%%% define the acronym 
\newglossaryentry{ct}{type=\acronymtype,
 name={CT},
 description={Computed Tomography. \emph{Glossary:} \gls{ctg}},
 first={Computed Tomography (CT)\glsadd{ctg}}} 

\newglossaryentry{tomo}{name={Tomography},
    description={Imaging by sections through an object}}    

\begin{document}    

blah blah \gls{ct} blah

\glsadd{tomo}    
\printglossary[type=\acronymtype,nonumberlist]    
\printglossary[type=main]    
\end{document}
