For your
information, thorough diagnosis
involves: 1. Review of
patient's history to seek clues as to the duration
and symptoms of the patient's
illness. 2. Physical
examination, including inspection of the
nose. Such inspection is performed with
fiberoptic endoscopes (see picture) that are made
of flexible rubber or rigid steel tube to look
inside the nose. 3. Depending on
what is found during endoscopy, CT scan
(computerized tomography) may need to be done. Now
CT scans are ordinarily done because a much greater
amount of information can be gleaned from the CT
scan. Endoscopy and CT
scans are now done very commonly for sinus
infections.
