Abstract

Objective

to investigate the volume and linear measurements of the frontal sinuses by means of a three-dimensional software using helical computed tomography images.

Materials and methods

The samples consisted of 36 tomographic images from 22 women and 14 men aged between 18 and 86 years old. The ITK/SNAP software was used for image segmentation, analysis of volume data, and linear measurements (i.e. height, width and depth).

Results

The mean volumes of the left and right frontal sinuses were 3.945 mm³ (SD = 2.803) and 3.423 mm³ (SD = 2.835). The mean linear measurements were the following: right-side axial depth of 16.1 mm (SD = 7.6), left-side axial depth of 17.0 mm (SD = 5.8), right-side sagittal height of 19.0 mm (SD = 11.1), and left-side sagittal height of 20.5 mm (SD = 9.8), with no statistically significant differences. The right-side axial width of 19.0 mm (SD = 6.8) and left-side axial width of 22.4 mm (SD = 9.1) in women and right-side axial width of 21.6 mm (SD = 12.9) and left-side axial width of 26.5 mm (SD = 9.8) in men, with statistically significant difference (P = 0.0264) for the left side.

Conclusion

There was a significant difference only for axial width, with the left side having higher values compared to the right side.

应用医学软件进行额窦三维体积分析

目的利用螺旋ct三维成像软件研究额窦的体积和线性测量。材料和方法样本包括来自22名女性和14名男性的36张断层图像，年龄在18岁至86岁之间。使用ITK/SNAP软件进行图像分割、体数据分析和线性测量(即高度、宽度和深度)。结果左、右额窦平均体积分别为3.945 mm3 (SD = 2.803)和3.423 mm3 (SD = 2.835)。平均线性测量值为:右侧轴向深度16.1 mm (SD = 7.6)，左侧轴向深度17.0 mm (SD = 5.8)，右侧矢状高度19.0 mm (SD = 11.1)，左侧矢状高度20.5 mm (SD = 9.8)，差异无统计学意义。女性右侧轴宽19.0 mm (SD = 6.8)、左侧轴宽22.4 mm (SD = 9.1)，男性右侧轴宽21.6 mm (SD = 12.9)、左侧轴宽26.5 mm (SD = 9.8)，左侧轴宽差异有统计学意义(P = 0.0264)。结论仅轴向宽度有显著性差异，左侧值高于右侧值。
