The authors conducted electroroentgenography for diagnostics of nasal bone fractures in 55 children aged from 5 to 15. They studied altogether 78 electroroentgenograms comparing them with 61 roentgenograms. Comparing the number and quality of details of nasal traumas revealed by roentgenography and those revealed by electroroentgenography the authors obtained evidence showing that the electroroentgenographic method of investigation was more accurate in diagnosing this pathology. Electroroentgenograms reveal details of destruction both of the osseous structure of the external nose and that of the osteo-cartilaginous structure of the nasal septum and the surrounding soft tissues. The authors recommend to use the electroroentgenographic method for diagnostics of traumatic lesions of the nose in children.
