Sensitivity of nasal airflow variables computed via computational fluid dynamics to the computed tomography segmentation threshold.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) allows quantitative assessment of transport phenomena in the human nasal cavity, including heat exchange, moisture transport, odorant uptake in the olfactory cleft, and regional delivery of pharmaceutical aerosols. The first step when applying CFD to investigate na...
