In the past two decades the radiological investigation and imaging
of paranasal sinus disease has been revolutionised by the
introduction of two new techniques: magnetic resonance and
computerised tomography. These have made the diagnosis and
localisation of neoplastic and non-neoplastic disease a far more
exact process and they have completely replaced con ventional
pluridirectional tomography as a means of augmenting the initial
plain radiographic examination of the paranasal sinuses. The recent
introduction into clinical practice of the paramagnetic contrast
agent gadolinium DTPA has extended further the range of magnetic
resonance in the demonstration of naso-sinus disease. The account
which follows is an attempt to summarise present knowledge in this
division of otorhinolaryngology imaging. The format of the chapters
has been arranged in two halves: the initial nine chapters are
concerned with investigative techniques and non-neoplastic disease.
while the second half of the book is entirely devoted to benign and
malignant tumours. The latter chapters are arranged according to
the nomenclature proposed by my two ex-colleagues. Professor I.
Friedmann and the late Dr D. A. Osborn. in their book The Pathology
of Granulomas and Neoplasms of the Nose and Paranasal Sinuses
(Churchill Livingstone. 1982)."
