| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The nose plays an important role by warming inspired air. Thus, modeling of air-conditioning in the nasal cavity is important for evaluating nasal functions. Recently, the nasal cavity geometry is reconstructed from in vivo acquired CT or MRI scans of the nasal passages, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation is carried out. The present research investigates the potential for voxel-based modeling of air-conditioning in the nasal cavity to provide a quantitative evaluation of nasal functions of individual subjects. The effectiveness of voxel-based modeling for the predictive assessment of surgical interventions was discussed.
