28 patients with various lacrimal passages disorders (age from 18 to 80; 18 women and 10 men) were examined. After ophthalmological examination all patients underwent radiology procedure. Using bioplasm nls analyzer, all patients underwent NLS-ultramicroscanning examination. 25 patients underwent multi-layer spiral CT using bioplasm nls system with contrast enhancement by non-ionic iodine-containing medication (Omnipak 240 mgI/ml) in sinus volume scanning mode.

Contrast enhancement was performed after prewashing of lacrimal passages via lacrimal openings by physiological solution. Thickness of tomographic slice – 0.38 mm. Multiplanar reconstructions in coronary, axial and sagittal sections were modelled.
