The value of computerized tomography (CT) in the evaluation of the anatomic structure of the attic.

By the use of computerized tomography (CT) the authors have examined and precisely defined the radiological anatomical characteristics of the attic and its relation to other structures of the middle and inner ear. The identification of individual morphological structures has been made on axial, semi-axial and frontal CT sections. Each type of original CT section has been compared with the corresponding original anatomical section.
