Heritability of Upper Airway Dimensions Derived Using Acoustic Pharyngometry

European Respiratory Journal, 2008 Authors: S. R. Patel, MD, J. M. Frame, E. K. Larkin, PhD, Susan Redline, MD, MPH Conclusion: “Our results suggest that upper airway dimensions derived via acoustic pharyngometry demonstrate substantial intra-familial correlation.” “Acoustic pharyngometry, because of its ease of use, is ideally suited for the study of the thousands of subjects…
