Impact of Nasal Pathology on Efficacy of Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) is a surgical treatment for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who cannot tolerate continuous positive airway pressure. Comorbid nasal pathology, such as septal deviations, turbinate hypertrophy, polyps, vestibular stenosis, and masses, is frequently seen and has been shown to decrease quality of life in ...

Beam-based mapping of pulsed septum stray field at VEPP-2000 collider [PDF]
Various beam-based methods are widely used for machine study and accurate tuning. Beam closed orbit (CO) responses are routinely used worldwide for magnetic elements alignment and lattice correction. The paper presents the beam-based field mapping technique, applied for measurement of pulsed septum magnet stray field at VEPP-2000 electron-positron ...

Regionally resolved cardiac metabolism using a dipole‐loop array coil for 7 T 31P‐MRSI
Abstract Purpose We introduce a novel commercial phosphorus‐31 (31P) dipole‐loop array coil, describing the coil hardware and testing its performance on phantoms. We used this coil to assess cardiac metabolism per region in healthy volunteers. Methods B1+ field maps were simulated and compared to maps measured with a set of CSI sequences with varying ...

Sonographic Imaging of the Superficial Radial Nerve and its Branches: A Pictorial Review
ABSTRACT Entrapment of the superficial radial nerve (SRN) can be a source of radial wrist, dorsal hand, and thumb pain which can be challenging to clinically differentiate from other pathological entities. Ultrasound allows direct visualization of the SRN and its branches as well as the assessment of the site, extent, and type of nerve injury or ...

Choanal atresia: A review of surgical outcomes in a tertiary medical center
Abstract Introduction Choanal atresia (CA) is a congenital narrowing or obliteration of the posterior nasal aperture. The condition is rare with an incidence of approximately 1 in 5000 to 9000 live births. Objective The aim of this work was to assess the results of treating this condition at the Otolaryngology Department in Oslo University Hospital ...

Septoplasty for nasal obstruction due to a deviated nasal septum in adults: a systematic review.
BACKGROUND The status of current evidence for the effectiveness of septoplasty is unclear. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of a) septoplasty (with or without concurrent turbinate surgery) versus non-surgical management, and b ...
