eng	The importance of smell in contemporary diagnosis of ENT disorders	Olfactory sensations can, in some cases, help us start the diagnostic algorithm - the laboratory, biochemical and serological tests, imaging techniques, etc. -, the choice of antibiotics and often they also start timely cooperation with the dental and infection physician or the thoracic surgeon.
