The objective of this study was to describe CT and MR findings in patients with allergic fungal sinusitis (AFS). CT and MR images were examined from 10 patients with histologically proven AFS. All patients demonstrated CT evidence of central sinus high attenuation and T2-weighted MR signal void corresponding to surgically proven areas of thick inspissated allergic mucin. AFS is a distinct clinical entity with a highly specific radiographic appearance based on CT and MRI.
本研究的目的是描述变应性真菌性鼻窦炎（AFS）患者的CT和MR表现。对10例经组织学证实为AFS的患者的CT和MR图像进行了检查。所有患者均表现出CT上中央鼻窦高密度影及T2加权MR信号缺失，对应于手术证实的浓稠变应性黏液所在区域。AFS是一种独特的临床实体，基于CT和MRI具有高度特异性的影像学表现。
