title: [The use of multimedia technologies in otorhinolaryngology].
abstract: The possibilities of using computer-assisted technologies in otorhinolaryngology have been analysed with a view to enhancing the efficacy of the teaching activity and improving the quality of diagnostics and treatment of various ENT diseases. It is emphasized that computers may be used not only to reproduce traditional teaching modalities but also to supplement them with new approaches inaccessible with conventional methods; the introduction of these approaches is of special importance for medical universities and institutes. The use of computer-based technologies in otorhinolaryngological practice made it possible to significantly improve the quality of diagnostics and treatment of the most widespread ENT diseases. For all that, however, the potential of computer technologies in otorhinolaryngology is by no means exhausted.
