Interventional sialography using digital imaging.
We review our results in treating 5 patients with parotid duct pathology (3 stenoses, 2 calculi), using digital subtraction imaging for sialography, and standard interventional techniques using balloon catheters. Good technical results were achieved in all 5 patients. We describe our techniques and how they were modified to overcome various difficulties.
