Sinus X-ray (limited)

A sinus x-ray asks a simple question: are the air spaces behind the face clear, or are they full? Air is black on the film and fluid or swollen lining is not, so a blocked sinus stands out. It is the old, inexpensive way to look, and it has largely been displaced by CT, which shows far more.
