title: [The value of digital subtraction sialography compared to conventional sialography, salivary gland sonography and surgical findings].
abstract: In a prospective study DSA sialography, conventional sialography (100mm technique) and sonography of the salivary glands were performed in 124 patients. The results of imaging could be correlated with those of operation and/or histology in 70 patients. Performing sialography in only one projection DSA sialography is superior to the conventional technique. The results of DSA are equivalent to those of conventional sialography in more than one projection. DSA sialography is the method of choice demonstrating salivary calculi, whereas sonography is superior to DSA sialography in the detection of tumors. In the diagnosis of chronic inflammation of the salivary glands DSA is slightly superior to the other imaging modalities.
