Abstract
This study demonstrates the feasibility of HRME imaging to discriminate sinonasal pathology from normal sinus epithelia. While the system performed well in the absence of inflammation, discrimination of inflamed tissue was inconsistent, creating a significant limitation for this application. Novel imaging systems such as HRME with alternative contrast agents may assist with real-time surgical margin differentiation, enabling complete surgical resection of inverted papilloma and reducing recurrence rates.
