Diagnosing Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis in Excised Tissue Using Optical Coherence Tomography
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study evaluated whether optical coherence tomography (OCT) can quantify eosinophils in excised sinonasal tissue and diagnose eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (ECRSwNP). Counts of globules resembling eosinophils on OCT images strongly correlated with eosinophils per HPF on histology, with a cutoff of 45 globules on OCT imaging ...
