Sinusitis is a condition characterized by inflammation of the sinus cavities, which can cause various symptoms such as nasal congestion, facial pain or pressure, headaches, reduced sense of smell, and sleep disturbances such as snoring. In some patients, sinusitis can become chronic and does not improve with medication alone. In certain cases, doctors may recommend conventional sinus surgery to remove blockages and infected tissue, a procedure that typically involves incisions and a relatively longer recovery period.
Mandaya Royal Hospital Puri now offers an advanced solution in the form of sinus surgery using QMR (Quantum Molecular Resonance) technology from Italy. This modern technology allows sinus surgery to be performed in a minimally invasive manner with high precision, helping to preserve healthy tissue around the sinuses. With this advanced approach, QMR-based sinus surgery offers a faster and more comfortable recovery while optimizing sinusitis treatment outcomes.

Understanding QMR Technology for Sinus Surgery at Mandaya Royal Hospital Puri
QMR is a minimally invasive medical technology used to treat conditions that cause nasal obstruction, such as enlarged nasal turbinates. Turbinate enlargement is often one of the contributing factors to chronic sinusitis.
QMR technology works by utilizing high-frequency electromagnetic waves to gently reduce problematic tissue without generating excessive heat or damaging the surrounding healthy tissue.
How QMR Technology Works in Sinus Surgery
- Performed by an ENT specialist: The QMR procedure is carried out by an ENT (ear, nose, and throat) specialist, typically under local anesthesia, ensuring patient comfort during the procedure.
- Targeted energy delivery: The doctor inserts a small probe into the nasal cavity and directs it precisely at the enlarged turbinate tissue.
- Molecular resonance in targeted tissue: The QMR device emits energy waves at low to high frequencies (approximately 4–64 MHz), causing molecular bonds within the target tissue to vibrate and break down.
- Tissue reduction without excessive heat: This process allows the tissue to shrink naturally without incisions and without high heat, unlike conventional methods that carry a risk of thermal injury.
- Improved airflow: As the turbinates shrink, the nasal passages widen, improving airflow and sinus drainage, which helps reduce nasal congestion and recurrent sinusitis symptoms.
What Are the Advantages of QMR Technology in Sinus Surgery?
The main benefits of using QMR technology to address nasal obstruction associated with sinusitis include:
- Minimal pain and bleeding, as the procedure does not involve excessive heat that can damage tissue.
- Faster recovery time, allowing patients to return to normal activities shortly after the procedure.
- High precision, as QMR energy is focused only on problematic tissue without affecting surrounding healthy areas.
