3-Dimensional and 2-Dimensional CT-Imaging of the Sinus Airways in a Model of Allergic Sinus Congestion

3-Dimensional and 2-Dimensional CT-Imaging of the Sinus Airways in a Model of Allergic Sinus Congestion

Conclusions We conclude that both 2-D and 3-D imaging provide measures of sinus congestion changes comparable with direct fluid-displacement methods of sinus volume assessments, indicating that non-invasive CT imaging may allow reliable assessment of sinus airway congestion, in the pre-clinical eval...

Zusammenfassung:Conclusions We conclude that both 2-D and 3-D imaging provide measures of sinus congestion changes comparable with direct fluid-displacement methods of sinus volume assessments, indicating that non-invasive CT imaging may allow reliable assessment of sinus airway congestion, in the pre-clinical evaluation of efficacy of therapeutic drugs for treatment of allergic sinus airway congestion.
