| Abstract | of the auditory ossicles in chronic otitis media patients. Materials and Methods: This study was carried out in 30 ears with chronic otitis media. All cases underwent an axial multidetector computed tomography imaging study. In addition to the axial images, sagittal and coronal multiplanar two-dimensional reformations and three-dimensional reconstructions were generated. Auditory ossicles were assessed in two-dimensional multiplanar images and three-dimensional reconstructions and compared with surgical findings. Results: Diagnostic value of three-dimensional reconstructions were equal or lower to two-dimensional images for evaluation of the ossicular chain. Suprastructure of the stapes was difficult to visualise on the three-dimensional images. Conclusion: Three-dimensional reconstructions are not useful in preoperative evaluation of the ossicular chain in chronic otitis media patients. |
