ABSTRACT
Inflammatory diseases of paranasal sinuses are among the most common medical conditions frequently occurring in ENT practice. Rhinosinusitises account for more than 2/3 of all visits to otorhinolaryngologist.
Early instant diagnostics of inflammatory diseases of paranasal sinuses is one of the priority tasks of the present-day otolaryngology. The authors have developed and clinically tested a device for the differential diagnostics of frontal sinusitises, the use of which makes no radiation exposure on the patient. The device has a simple design and provides screening of the frontal sinuses of the patient, making a definite diagnosis and determining the form of the inflammatory process.
