The review article presents generalized results of literary search concerning modern methods of investigation of the maxillary sinuses, such as X-ray analysis, computed tomography and magnetic-resonance imaging. Advantages and disadvantages of their application are indicated. Radiography is one of the main methods of morphological examinations enabling to study a syntopy, skeletotopy and features of topography of various organs and structures. Computed tomography enables to accurately diagnose the borders of spread of purulent discharge and to present complete information for possible surgery. Magneticresonance imaging diagnoses various nature of damage or abnormalities of development, possessing a number of advantages in comparison with other methods of investigation.
