Clinical Applictions
Nose and Paranasal Sinuses
The functional endoscopic surgery of the sinuses has developed as a standard technique world wide for sinus operations. The präoperative coronal CT-examination of the paranasal sinuses is today recognized as a standard method. Irrespective of that the surgeon requires an optimal combination to orient himself to the operating region. The virtual reconstruction obtained from the spiral CT data does this work for the surgeon. The surgeons too agree that there is high similarity between virtual endoscopy and the intra operative impression. Scientific studies have shown that virtual endoscopy of the nose and paranasal sinuses is rather a preoperative than a diagnostic support for the ENT surgeons.
