Upper Airway Areas, Volumes and Linear Measurements Determined on CT during Different Phases of Respiration Predict the Presence of Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The objective of this study was to analyze the potential of using low-dose, volumetric computed tomography (CT) during different phases of respiration for identifying patients likely to have severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) defined as having a respiratory disturbance index (RDI) of more than 30.
