title: [Diagnostic possibilities in salivary gland diseases (author's transl)].
abstract: A survey about different diagnostic parameters in salivary gland diseases is given. History, inspection, palpation, radiologic examinations by sialography and szintigraphy as well as sialometric and sialochemic findings are compared for their diagnostic value. Thereby by sialochemie and sialometrie a differentiation between sialadenitis and sialadenoses is possible in nearly all cases. Also in the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant tumors sialochemic findings are helpful.
