CT images in both transverse axial and coronal planes of 52 cases of maxillofacial tumors were analyzed. The authors emphasized that coronal technique should not be neglected, especially when the tumor was near the base of the skull, the sphenoid sinus and the hard palate. Transverse axial scan alone could not demonstrate the exact extent of invasion and the adjacent relationship. Coronal scan affords exceptional visualization. In such conditions, the combination of scans in two planes is the most helpful in delineating such lesions. It provides important information for determining surgical or radiotherapeutic approaches.
对52例颌面肿瘤患者的横断轴位和冠状位CT图像进行了分析。作者强调冠状位技术不应被忽视，尤其是当肿瘤靠近颅底、蝶窦和硬腭时。仅横断轴位扫描无法显示确切的侵犯范围和相邻关系。冠状位扫描能提供极佳的可视化效果。在这种情况下，两个平面的扫描相结合对描绘此类病变最有帮助。它为确定手术或放射治疗方案提供重要信息。
