Abstract

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an imaging modality that provides computed tomographic images using a rotational C-arm equipped with a flat panel detector. The aim of this technique is to provide additional information to conventional 2D imaging to improve the proper management of otolaryngological diseases. This article presents cases we have experienced and the usefulness of CBCT in the management of presurgical evaluation for sinonasal diseases. From our limited experience, CBCT provides accurate detection and targeting, periprocedural guidance, and post-procedural evaluation of treatment success.
