Summary
Multiplanar and surface reconstructions are useful tools in anatomical studies. Details of ethmoid architecture which are hard to image in axial and coronal scans are well displayed by means of oblique sections. This paper addresses reformatted images of a) the nasal lateral wall; b) the middle meatus lateral wall; c) the lamina basilaris of the middle turbinate and d) the frontonasal duct.
