Abstract | Background: Sinusitis is a common medical problem, especially in children. Diagnosis of sinusitis in children is usually based on clinical symptoms and clinicians usually tend to avoid X- ray study especially less than 6 years of age. Nowadays, the gold- standard for the diagnosis of sinusitis is CT scan but other modalities including plain X-ray and MRI are also useful. In the literature, there are few studies about the use of ultrasound for diagnosis of sinusitis as a safe, inexpensive and radiation-free method but most of these studies are limited to adults. | en |
