title: [Present-day advantages of computerized tomography in the diagnosis of chronic inflammatory changes in paranasal sinuses in flying personnel].
abstract: The paper demonstrates the diagnostic effectiveness of computer tomography for discovering chronic productive sinus in flying personnel. On the evidence mounted from 190 patients with paranasal sinus, the computer tomography semiotics of various chronic inflammatory processes in sinus has been developed and the comparative analysis of computer tomography and classic X-ray and ultrasonic scanning of sinus has been fulfilled. The computer tomography appears to have high diagnostic potentials for revealing pathology in paranasal sinus in flying personnel. It was confirmed that the technique enables to examine normal anatomy of paranasal sinus, support or invalidate previous diagnosis, and to ascertain the spread and the character of process, visualize alterations in soft and bone tissues and plan surgery.
