AbstractThe present article focuses on the analysis of the nasal cavity's anatomy succinctly and descriptively. This essay was carried out through a bibliographic review, directed to the detailed anatomy of the nasal cavity, and the structures that form its sinuses. We have identified the need for more studies directed to the related anatomical area so that the improved knowledge of this region ensures a nasoendoscopic treatment with better effectiveness and no complications.

Relevance of the research. The features of complex anatomical and functional organization of the maxillofacial area, peripheral nervous system, as well as autonomic structures determine a variety of pathogenetic mechanisms of prosopalgia, among which the lesions of the pterygopalatine node are the most common. Despite the presence of a significant variety of clinical manifestations of pterygopalatine ganglionitis, the prevalence and variety of autonomic manifestations in this disease, the main complaint of patients is pain, the characteristics of which are quite different. The aim of our research was to study the nature of pain in patients with pterygopalatine ganglionitis. Material and methods of research. We examined 105 patients with pterygopalatine ganglionitis aged from 30 to 74 years. Patients were examined for the nature of pain and its intensity, the predominant time of onset and duration of pain attacks, the place of primary localization of pain and the area of its spread. A visual analog scale (VAS) was used to assess pain intensity. Based on the intensity of pain and depending on the severity of the disease, all patients were divided into three groups: mild, moderate and severe pterygopalatine ganglionitis. With a mild severity of pterygopalatine ganglionitis, the intensity of pain attacks is 4-5 points, lasting up to 30 minutes and with a frequency of 1-3 times a day with localization within one or two anatomical areas. With moderate severity, the intensity of pain attacks is 5-7 points, lasting from 30 minutes to 1-2 hours and with a frequency of 4-5 times a day with the gradual spread of pain from one area to half of the face. The severe course is characterized by pain attacks of 8-10 points, lasting for 2 hours or more and with a frequency of attacks from 4 to 6-10 per day. In addition, the pain, occurring in one anatomical area, gradually spread to half of the face, radiating to neighboring areas. Thus, analyzing the features of the pain syndrome in patients with pterygopalatine ganglionitis, we can conclude: 1. The intensity of pain, which was determined by VAS, increases depending on the severity of ganglionitis and ranges from 4.3 points in mild to 8.75 in severe ganglionitis. 2. The duration and frequency of pain attacks increase from 30 minutes with a frequency of 1-3 seizures per day in patients with mild pterygopalatine ganglionitis, to 2 or more hours and 4-10 seizures per day in patients with severe ganglionitis. 3. The localization of pain attacks extends from one anatomical area in mild ganglionitis to half of the face with the possibility of irradiation of pain in severe ganglionitis. 4. These clinical symptoms should be used in determining the severity of pterygopalatine ganglionitis and the choice of treatment tactics in the future.

Іn this article we discussed the clinical case of leiomyoma of the lower nasal cavity. This pathology is exceptionally rare in such anatomical area, thus examination of current case is very important for medical practitioners. Often this diagnosis can be established intraoperative or after the results of morphological examination. The experience of our clinical case review can assist our colleagues in making a diagnosis at the patient primary examination stage. We also reviewed existing publications on this topic to find common features and differences in patients with this pathology.

Tomosynthesis is a modern effective and informative method of low-dose X-ray diagnostics, which allows obtaining a significant number of layered images with the subsequent volumetric image reconstruction. The use of tomosynthesis provides a one-time examination of a large anatomical area without loss of the image quality and diagnostics of difficult-to-visualize pathological changes that are not detected by digital radiography. The article presents an overview of the problem of improving low-dose imaging options in the radiation diagnostics, as well as the authors own data on the use of tomosynthesis for the diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia in children.

Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) has been reported to successfully identify bone marrow oedema (BME) in various traumatic settings. DECT has multiple strengths, including the availability of both a 3D view of the anatomical area studied and of high-resolution dual energy specific maps super-imposed onto conventional grayscale morphological images. Windowing can be used to enhance the visualization of BME by increasing the level of the super-imposed images. Conversely, by decreasing the level of the super-imposition of color-coded images, it is possible to progressively enhance the visualization of fine anatomical details, which is useful for diagnosing associated imaging findings. Importantly, bone sclerosis may represent an important pitfall for DECT, potentially generating both false positive and false negative findings by locally altering CT numbers. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the strengths and limitations of DECT in accurately detecting traumatic BME, by considering practical approaches to imaging at several anatomical sites.

Objectives: The anatomical area that constitutes the abdomen is an area that is often subject to serious conditions. These diseases can affect the digestive and urogenital systems and radiography is a complementary examination of choice to refine the diagnosis. This study had for objective, to realize a radio anatomical atlas of the Abdomen in order to facilitate the comprehension and the interpretation of the radiographic pictures of the dog. Methodology: To do this, radiographs were performed on the Abdomen of 30 healthy dogs including 15 females and 15 males, (all of local breed) received at the radiology room. Results: At the end of the study, the best normal pictures by anatomical region and by incidence of the normal pictures of the Abdomen, were selected constituting a reference database in radiographic anatomy of this animal. Each radiograph is commented and annotated, facilitating the understanding of the images. These radiographic images will serve as a basis for the interpretation of radiographic images of the abdomen in the dog. Conclusion: These radiographs will serve as a basis for the interpretation of radiographic images of the abdomen of the dog.

Currently, the treatment of musicians is an interprofessional approach. Playing-related health complaints may impact the performance of a musician. In Germany, a medical consulting hour for musicians exists, but those for athletes in sports medicine are not so common. The diagnosing and treatment procedure within the physiotherapy consultation for musicians follows a specific concept-b and requires knowledge of instruments and musician-specific complaints. Based on the consulting hour in a clinic in Osnabrueck, 614 case reports were part of this sample, of which 558 data sets were complete. The focus of the analysis is the instrument and the primary complaint. Also, the type of therapy is characterized, and the amount is calculated. Primary complaints of musicians, in general, are found most frequently in the spine and upper extremity. Musician complaints are different between instruments. Instrumentalists have a significantly higher chance to suffer from a primary complaint in the area of the upper extremity. Furthermore, the groups without an instrument (e.g., singing or dancing) are developing complaints in the anatomical area which they primarily use. Therefore, these types of therapy were used: physiotherapy, manual therapy, and osteopathy with an average of 5.9 treatment units. This study underpinned the importance of musician-specific physiotherapy as a profession to treat musicians. Also, an interdisciplinary approach is necessary to treat all aspects of complaints.
