title: [Radionuclide imaging of lacrimal duct in health and disease].
abstract: Dacryoscintigraphy is a perspective method for examination of the lacrimal system function. It has many advantages over other methods (functional tests, roentgenography, and computer-aided tomography) and notably improves the diagnostic potentialities of examination of the lacrimal function. The technique and results of the method are discussed.
