Abstract:
Objective QR-DVT 9000 NEWTOM CT, an oral maxillofacial dedicated CT, was applied in the diagnosis of maxillary sinus related diseases. Its value and technique are summarized. Method Patients with maxillary sinus related diseases were scanned and images were reconstructed with QR-DVT 9000 CT. The axial view of reconstructed image was analyzed in sagittal plane, coronal plane and 3-D. Results QR-DVT 9000 NEWTOM CT could display the position, shape and anatomic relationship of maxillary sinus with adjacent structures in sagittal image, coronal image and 3-D image. Conclusion QR-DVT 9000 NEWTOM CT, an oral maxillofacial dedicated CT, is considerably valuable in the diagnosis of maxillary sinus related diseases, and it can guide clinical surgery more effectively than routine X ray examination.
