title: [Present status and place of sialography].
abstract: Roentgenography without contrast media and sialography, as well as the basic facts concerning the radiodiagnostic of the salivary gland, are all discussed with regard to the most current equipment, examination techniques, the positioning of patients, and the problems involved in contrast media. The technique used in more than 4,000 sialograms is recommended. The diagnostic value of this method is illustrated by means of representative patient series: sialolithiasis, inflammatory disorders, and tumors. The limitations of the method are demonstrated and complementary examinations shown.
