Modified Method of Acoustic Rhinometry
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2002 Acoustic rhinometry is a well-known method for evaluating nasal cavity patency using sound waves. The method produces graphical information on cross-sectional areas, the distances between these areas and the nostril and the nasal volume. We used this method to evaluate 40 children aged between 7 and 13 years old with complaints of nasal obstruction ...

, 2019 In acoustic rhinometry (AR), an audible acoustic signal is transmitted into the nasal cavity, the reflected sounds are measured, and the resulting electrical signals are analyzed by software that provides a graphical presentation of two-dimensional area section-length relationships. This method is used worldwide in both clinical facilities and research
