Value of acoustic rhinometry for measuring nasal valve area.
OBJECTIVE To assess the validity of acoustic rhinometry for measuring nasal valve area in human subjects. STUDY DESIGN A comprehensive study that compared acoustic rhinometry data with computed tomography findings from scans obtained perpendicular to the acoustic axis and perpendicular to the floor of the nose. METHODS Fifty nasal passages of 25 healthy adults with no nasal disease were exa...

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 کاملAssessment of septoplasty effectiveness using acoustic rhinometry and rhinomanometry
Introduction: Septal deviation is the chief cause of chronic nasal obstruction. In order to treat such cases, nasal septoplasty surgery is usually performed based on patient complaints and a surgeon's examination, both of which are subjective. This study aims at using the objective parameters of acoustic rhinometry and rhinomanometry to evaluate the effectiveness of septoplasty surgery. Ma...
متن کاملModelling the reproducibility of acoustic rhinometry.
This paper presents an application of a linear model with correlated errors to the assessment of the precision of acoustic rhinometry in clinical medicine. The design of the reproducibility study involved 20 healthy subjects measured by five investigators with three replicate measurements of four variates taken from the right and left nasal cavities, altogether 2400 measurements. The parametric...
