Radiology is by far the most precise indirect sinus investigation. The handicaps of the current radiology methods and the different standard positionings, eg. the confusing bone superposition and the exact state of a poorly illuminated sinus are eliminated by tomographies. Tomodensitometry, characterised by a strongly increased contrast, allows to perform axial sections and should be preferred in facial traumatology and tumors.
