Computational Modeling of Cleft Lip Nasal Deformity and Assessment of Nasal Function and Treatment Outcomes

NCT04150783 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 12

Last updated 2025-11-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to use computers to simulate airflow in 3D construction of your nasal cavity generated from cone beam CT images. The results from computer simulations will help researchers identify the severity of cleft-induced nasal dysfunction and assess the impact of current treatment in restoring breathing function. The ultimate goal is to improve post-surgery outcomes to restore nasal breathing function to normal levels.
