Pediatric Nasal Cavity and Paranasal Sinuses: A Digital Interactive Teaching File of Normal Anatomy, Variants, and Disease (Out of Print)
Abstract Imaging evaluation of the pediatric paranasal sinuses is complicated by complex 3D anatomy and frequent anatomical variations. While hard-copy atlases of the paranasal sinuses exist, these often show only a few selected images of relevant anatomical structures. To facilitate understanding o...

| Summary: | Abstract Imaging evaluation of the pediatric paranasal sinuses is complicated by complex 3D anatomy and frequent anatomical variations. While hard-copy atlases of the paranasal sinuses exist, these often show only a few selected images of relevant anatomical structures. To facilitate understanding of the imaging anatomy of the paranasal sinuses, we constructed this online, large-data-set, digital computerized tomography (CT) atlas that demonstrates the normal appearance of the paranasal sinuses at various ages throughout childhood, as well as five atlases (sphenoid, maxillary, ethmoid, frontal sinuses, and nasal cavity) that demonstrate color shading of the sinuses for a 15-year-old normal patient. In addition, we assembled a teaching file of CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) cases comprised of entire imaging exams that show a variety of neoplastic, inflammatory/infectious, congenital, traumatic, and iatrogenic pathologies. |
