that the doctor will use a dye or ink of some kind to mark a spot where they remove a polyp or see something, so that they can locate the area more readily on followup.

there must be two openings in the nasal cavity. Ostium means opening. Meatus means opening also. So if it is as you say, then ostium (opening) meatal (opening) complex is what you are referring to. Plus that, there is no such word as ostio.
I was referring to the osteum (bone) and meatus (opening) or the osteomeatal complex of the nose.
