Radiological technique in the investigation of the lacrimal system has greatly benefited from various advances in radiology; techniques of catheterisation, contrast media, seriography, subtractions, associated complex tomography (dacryocystotomography), tomodensitometry. To these may be added the dynamic nature of isotope studies (cinegammadacrycystography). These different techniques may be used in the precise analysis of the morphology of the lacrimal system, from the canaliculi to the meatuses. After reviewing normal radiological anatomy, the authors describe morphological abnormalities, according to different forms of obstruction, according to their site. This morphological discovery requires possible changes in technique (additional tomography, for example). The quality of the preoperative morphological exploration influences the quality of the therapeutic results obtained.
泪腺系统检查中的放射学技术极大地受益于放射学的各种进展；包括导管插入术、造影剂、连续摄影、减法成像、相关复杂体层摄影术（泪囊体层摄影术）、体层密度测定法等技术。此外还有同位素研究的动态特性（动态γ泪囊造影术）。这些不同的技术可用于从泪小管到鼻道的泪腺系统形态的精确分析。在回顾了正常放射学解剖结构后，作者根据不同的梗阻形式及其部位描述了形态学异常。这种形态学发现可能需要技术上的改变（例如附加体层摄影）。术前形态学探查的质量会影响所获得的治疗效果的质量。
