Sensitivities have been reported from 29% to 100% and specificities from 55% to 99%. These wide variations in results from previous studies may have resulted from technical differences. However, the \u201cgold standard\u201d most often used for comparison has been a Water's view radiograph, which has been shown to correlate poorly with intraoperative and CT scan findings. To our knowledge, no one In the English language literature has evaluated sonography of the sinuses with computed tomography as the gold standard. In addition, evaluation of the ethmoid sinus has been neglected by previous studies that have primarily assessed the maxillary sinus. We report the results of a blinded, prospective trial comprised of 41 patients examined by B\u2010mode ultrasound with comparison to computed tomography. Frontal and maxillary sinuses were examined with traditional sonographic techniques and the ethmoid sinuses were scanned with a transglobe technique not previously evaluated in the English language literature. Excluding Isolated mucous retention cysts and focal minimal mucosal thickening (defined as &lt;4 mm), sensitivities for ultrasound of the maxillary, frontal, and ethmoid sinuses were 100% each. Specificities were 98% for the maxillary sinus, 100% for the frontal sinus, and 94% for the ethmoid sinus. Technical aspects and implications of this and previous reports will be discussed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/019459988910700601.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,5]],"date-time":"2017-01-05T16:20:22Z","timestamp":1483633222000},"page":"713-720","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["B\u2010Mode ultrasonography of the paranasal sinuses compared with CT findings"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"107","author":[{"given":"Gerard J.","family":"Gianoli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Tulane University Medical Center New Orleans Louisiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wolfgang J.","family":"Mann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Klinikum der Johannes Gutenberg Universitat University HNO\u2010Klinik Mainz Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Robert H.","family":"Miller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Tulane University Medical Center New Orleans Louisiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,12,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0091-6749(86)90324-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0091-6749(86)90115-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_4_1","first-page":"670","article-title":"Comparison of B\u2010mode ultrasound, radiography, and sinuscopy in the diagnosis of maxillary sinusitis","volume":"42","author":"Trigaux J","year":"1988","journal-title":"Acta Otorhinolaryngol Belg"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0022215100110011"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198507000-00021"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016488209111607"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00463193"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/019459988609400205"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198903000-00016"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_11_1","first-page":"405","article-title":"Radiographic evaluation for nasal dysfunction: computed tomography versus plain films","volume":"11","author":"Davidson T","year":"1989","journal-title":"Head Neck Surg"},{"volume-title":"Presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Otolaryngology\u2010Head and Neck Surgery","year":"1990","author":"Lazar RH","key":"e_1_2_1_12_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00325481.1982.11715985"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_14_1","first-page":"604","article-title":"Echographische diagnostik des sinus ethmoidalis","volume":"63","author":"Rochels R","year":"1984","journal-title":"I.
