Sinuscope Pro

The device uses the method of ultrasound examination of the paranasal sinuses, based on the property of ultrasound reflected at the boundary of two media with different acoustic resistance. Given the direction of the beam and the position of the reflecting point, it is possible to determine the location of the structures of interest to the researcher. Echosinuscopy considers echo signals reflected from the boundaries of "soft tissue/bone", "bone/air", "bone/sinus contents", "sinus contents/bone". The reflection coefficient of ultrasound is very different for different interfaces. At the "bone/air" boundary, there is a complete reflection of ultrasound. At the "bone/sinus contents" boundary, a partial reflection of ultrasound occurs, and part of the ultrasonic energy passes through the boundary and spreads in a liquid, for example, in the liquid contents of the maxillary.
