Predictive Value of Computed Tomographic Ethmoid-to-Maxillary Ratio in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyp
The E/M ratio based on the L-M and Zinreich scoring systems correlated with tissue markers of type 2 inflammation. A scale with an E/M ratio of 1 in the L-M system should be further investigated using a more detailed scoring system to determine the presence of an ethmoid-dominant shadow. This could help clinicians better evaluate CT images to determine the severity of type 2 inflammation in patients with CRSwNP and provide optimal therapeutic strategies.
