The comparative study of submandibular gland function before and after unilateral section of the chorda tympani, is used to verify the validity of sequential scintigraphy as a method of appraising the function of the salivary glands. Sequential scintigraphy of the submandibular glands was evaluated as a new, simple, and dependable test of the function of the submandibular glands, in topographical and prognostic assessment of 10 patients with unilateral idiopathic facial paralysis. The results of this neurodiagnostic test were compared and were found to be in close agreement with the results obtained by submandibular salivary flow measurement. The use of sequential scintigraphy of the submandibular glands constitutes a valuable tool in the clinical evaluation of patients with peripheral facial nerve disorders.
通过比较鼓索神经单侧切断术前后下颌下腺的功能，来验证序贯闪烁扫描法作为评估唾液腺功能方法的有效性。对10例单侧特发性面神经麻痹患者进行地形学和预后评估时，将下颌下腺序贯闪烁扫描法作为一种新的、简单且可靠的下颌下腺功能测试进行评估。将该神经诊断测试的结果进行比较，发现与下颌下唾液流量测量结果密切一致。下颌下腺序贯闪烁扫描法的应用为周围性面神经疾病患者的临床评估提供了一种有价值的工具。
