Popis: By depicting the status of the middle ear beyond atretic canals, multidirectional tomography can materially assist in the planning of surgery for conductive hearing losses. The course of the facial nerve is best demonstrated by the Guillen projection and by lateral projections. Deformities of the inner ear structures may be surveyed by similar projections. Deformities of the inner ear structures may be surveyed by similar projections. The base view accurately predicts the status of the cochlea. If lesions are classified as external canal deformities, middle ear deformities, or inner ear deformities, the clinician may more easily identify hereditary versus environmental syndromes.
