Analytical comparisons of standardized nasal cavity

Human nasal cavities are unique and distinct when compared to each other. This causes difficulties in comparing the available information as there are no clear guidelines or standard procedures to adhere with. The creation of a standardized model is important to represent a certain population and wi...
