Abstract:
This article illustrates and discusses the applications and value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of sinonasal disease. There are several clinical scenarios where MRI can add value over conventional computed tomography (CT) evaluation of the sinonasal spaces. Specifically, MRI can provide insight through better depiction of the anatomy of certain sinonasal sub-sites including the olfactory structures. It can aid in evaluating anosmia, sinusitis (fungal sinusitis and complications), benign and malignant lesions, CSF leaks and pathology extending into sinonasal spaces.

Description of the Procedures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan:
Computed Tomography (CT) scans use X-ray technology to generate detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues. During the scan, the patient lies on a moving table...

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...
