Evaluation of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome by Computational Fluid Dynamics
Sittitavornwong S et al. - The results help define the surgical techniques in OSAS for more precise identification of upper airway anatomical features. This process correlates the area and pressure change at the velopharynx, oropharynx, and retroglossal space of the upper airway by the ETLab. Results can compare with polysomnogram and cure rates. 3D computer analysis can be used to test flow dynamics in the human airway for surgical treatment of OSAS. [more...]
