[Bavarian mammography screening program].

In Bavaria since the 1st April 2003 we have been conducting a high quality mammography-screening carried out in individual practises (BMS). We have used the European and the S 3 guidelines. The best diagnosis is an early diagnosis of the breast carcinoma to save human life. Because of this and the high mortality rate due to this disease it is essential to have a mammogram screening program. There is no single one ideal way of constructing a screening program, it is always based on compromise within the particular health care-systems. Arising problems cannot be avoided, it is only possible when all parties work closely together that the BMS works properly.

[Osseous variations in the coronary CT of the paranasal sinuses].

Bony variations in the anterior ethmoids may, if severe, play an important role in the development of chronic sinusitis and present the surgeon with added risks during operation. We have, therefore, analysed 390 preoperative CT examinations of the sinuses performed in the coronary plane with respect to the frequency of bone variations. Concha bullosa, increased pneumatisation of the agger nasi, large ethmoidal bullae, Haller's cells and increased pneumatization of the sphenoid were found with equal frequency in about 20%. The most common variants occurred in the uncinate process (31.5%), less common were paradoxical curve of the middle turbinates (13.3%) and very rare were Onodi cells (1.3%).
