Volumetric Analysis of the Paranasal Sinuses using CT among Chronic Sinusitis Conditions
Abstract: The volume of air sinuses offers values that are more accurate and closest to their natural measurements and contributes to diagnosing sinus pathologies. The study aimed to compare paranasal sinus volumes of chronic rhinosinusitis patients to unaffected controls in Saudi Arabia using Computerized tomography scans (n=151), which processed by axial manual segmentation of the air sinuses using a 3D Slicer Program to construct a three dimensional (3D) volume model of each PAS bilaterally. The sample consisted of 50 normal controls and 101 patients with chronic sinusitis (73 males and 78 females, age ranging from 1 to 83 years). They were divided into two age groups: > 20 years (43) and20 years old) with a percent of 81.18 % more than the younger one (
