[Computer-assisted anatomical evaluation of the nasal sinuses in 1-2 years old children].

Objective: To analyze the anatomical and developmental characteristics of nasal sinuses in 1-2 years old children; and provide potential evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of sinusitis in 1-2 years old children.

Method: Coronal CT scans of 60 cases (1-2 years old children) were studied with the imaging station. Reference datas were identified on these images using imaging station.

[Bronchial foreign body of a 8-month infant: a case report].

[Computer-assisted anatomical evaluation of the nasal sinuses in infants].

Objective: To analyze the anatomical and developmental characteristics of nasal sinuses in infants; and provide potential evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of sinusitis in infants.

Method: Coronal CT scans for 36 infants (72 sides) were studied with the imaging station. Reference data were identified on these images using imaging station.

[The character of pediatric chronic sinusitis with chronic cough].

Objective: To evaluate clinical and imaging character of chronic rhinosinusitis in the children with chronic cough and to discuss the treatment of them.

Method: Fifty-three children with chronic cough were examined by otolaryngologists and evaluated by computed tomography (CT) scan. Some of them were also evaluated by nasal endoscope.
