title: [Normal imaging of facial sinuses].
abstract: The high spatial resolution of computed tomography allows visualisation of the fine structures of the facial skeleton and gives precise information about the anatomy of the nasal cavity, the paranasal sinuses and their relations with adjacent structures. A detailed knowledge of the normal anatomy, particularly of the nasal cavity and ethmoid, is very useful to provide to the surgeon with a precise pre operative surgical map, before transnasal endoscopic ethmoidectomy or management of paranasal sinuses tumors.
