Clinical Use of Scanora 3D

After seminar in the Helsinki we decided to get Scanora 3D imaging machine to our hospital. The use of a newly installed Scanora 3D system reports in the diagnosis of various diseases of the ear, nose and throat. We got the machine from Tampere where it is installed in a moderate sized private radiology clinic. After three months of use and since the system was an installed patient with acute and chronic sinusitis, temporal bone diseases and inner ear anomalies have been studied by personal from hospital to analyze the safe use of this new technique in various ENT diseases.

The main use of the system we use has been for the imaging of the paranasal sinuses ie. sinusitis and polyposis. Our stuff have been more than satisfied with the availability of images in 3D planes obtained using extremely low radiation doses. In the head and neck and temporal bone areas, the main use of the system at our institution is for the preoperative evaluation of the anomalies in the maxilla, mandible and inner ear, but the system has worked equally well in cases of infections and trauma of the temporal bone. The image data have also been used for virtual planning and navigation. We have been very pleased with new Scanora 3D.
