FIELD: medicine, otorhinolaryngology.
SUBSTANCE: during magneto-resonance tomography it is necessary to detect the volume of soft-tissue formations in oropharyngeal area and minimal sectional area of the upper respiratory tract. At the values of soft palate volume ranged 13993.1-14649.5 cu. mm, those of the tongue ranged 127164.4-127955.8 cu. mm, nasopharynx ranged 2560.0-3041.0 cu. mm, oropharynx ranged 7514.2-8136.6 cu. mm, laryngopharynx ranged 3601.0-4180.4 cu. mm, minimal area of the upper respiratory tract in cross section ranged 29.9-56.7 cu. mm it is possible to diagnose the syndrome of sleep apnea in combination with the phenomenon of snore.
