Abstract

The final aim of radiologic work-up on sinus diseases is to accurately localize the pathology and suggest a diagnosis so that proper treatment planning can be initiated. Definite cross-sectional images of soft tissue with high-resolution thin-section CT and contrast-enhancing characteristics give clues to differential diagnosis and extent of the abnormality. Recently, CT evaluation and nasal endoscopy are two basic routine examinations of chronic or recurrent sinusitis for surgeons advocating ‘Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery’.

Authors are to present CT findings of paranasal sinus pathology reviewing 53 cases of CT of paranasal sinuses，experienced during last one year.
