Intersession Repeatability of Acoustic Rhinometry Measurements in Healthy Volunteers
OBJECTIVES Acoustic rhinometry is a rapid, reliable and non-invasive technique for the evaluation of conditions associated with impaired nasal patency. This study aimed to examine the intersession repeatability of acoustic rhinometry measurements of unilateral and combined nasal parameters in a group of healthy volunteers. METHODS Twenty healthy volunteers were studied. In each subject, acous...
متن کاملAccuracy of acoustic rhinometry measurements.
OBJECTIVES To identify the factors that influence the accuracy of acoustic rhinometry measurements recorded with commercially available equipment. STUDY DESIGN A simple model was used which consisted of a metal pipe and cylindrical inserts. These inserts comprised various lengths, and aperture dimensions were comparable to, or smaller than, the nasal valve areas of both adults and children. ...
متن کاملNasal cavity geometry of healthy adults assessed using acoustic rhinometry.
UNLABELLED Acoustic rhinometry (AR) has been used as a specific test for nasal patency. AIM this study aimed to set the reference values for nasal cavity cross-section geometry in healthy adults through AR. STUDY DESIGN this is a clinical prospective study. MATERIALS AND METHOD thirty volunteers (14 males and 16 females) without signs of nasal obstruction and aged between 18 and 30 years ...
متن کاملIntersession repeatability of macular thickness measurements with the Humphrey 2000 OCT.
PURPOSE This study was designed to determine intersession repeatability of measurements of macular thickness made with a commercially available optical coherence tomography (OCT) system. The images that can be routinely acquired with the commercial instrument differ significantly in quality from the images in the literature, which have mostly been acquired on prototype systems. METHODS Multip...
متن کاملDiffusion tensor imaging of the kidney at 3 Tesla MRI: normative values and repeatability of measurements in healthy volunteers.
PURPOSE To evaluate the feasibility of renal diffusion tensor imaging and determine the normative fractional anisotropy and apparent diffusion coefficient values at 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using parallel imaging and free breathing technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 52 young healthy volunteers with no history of renal disease were included in the study. MRI examinatio...
