Summary
Possibilities of CT-imaging for functional diagnostic of nasal respiration are described. The method of evaluation, a hydraulic diameter and a Reynolds number of nasal airflow is proposed. Possibilities and perspectives of this method for diagnostic of nasal diseases and surgery planning of septoplastic are discussed.
