Accuracy and precision of manual segmentation of the maxillary sinus in MR images - a method study.

CONCLUSION: We found a high accuracy and precision of manual segmentation of the maxillary sinus in MR images. The largest mean errors were found close to the orbit and the teeth. Advances in knowledge: MRI can be used for 3D models of the paranasal sinuses with equally good results as CT and allows longitudinal follow-up of sinus development.
