title: [Ultrasonic diagnosis and sinus diseases].
abstract: By employing ultrasound in the routine diagnosis of sinus diseases, the margin of error in the accuracy of diagnosis can be reduced by 10% compared to that using clinical records and x-rays, provided however, that the investigator has sufficient experience in operating the ultrasonic equipment. The inclusion of ultrasonic diagnostics has proven itself particularly valuable in the diagnosis if both discharges and tumors in children and for progress control of patients having had conservative treatment or operations.
