Abstract:Pulse-synchronous tinnitus (PST) has been linked to multiple anatomical variants of the venous outflow tract, including transverse sinus (TS) stenosis and sigmoid sinus (SS) dehiscence. It is unknown if the size of diameter in the TS part at the symptomatic side will result in PST. In this study, a combined experimental and computational approach is adopted to study the blood flow during PST. A parametric study is performed on the diameter size of one PST patient at the symptomatic side. A Reynold-averaged-Nav… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
