Assessment of the anatomical course of the canalis sinuosus using cone beam computed tomography

ConclusionsThe use of CBCT allowed investigation of the course of the CS as it progresses across the antero ‐lateral wall of the maxillary sinus to be more accurately defined radiographically than has been previously described. There were some statistically significant differences between vertical measurements comparing left and right side, but none for age or gender. The rate of the identification of t he CS using CBCT was 100%.
