title: [Application of the scanning of three-dimensional space of whirl computed tomography in elongated styloid process].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Looking for a method of diagnosing elongated styloid process.
  
  
  METHODS
  The scanning of three-dimensional space of whirl computed tomography (CT) has been used for 20 cases.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The patients who are suspected elongated styloid process are diagnosed really.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The scanning of three-dimensional space of whirl CT is a very useful method for the diagnosing of suspected elongated styloid process.
