Abstract:
A method, computer-readable medium, and system for predicting a response to tongue-base therapies (particularly as it relates to obstructive sleep apnea) are provided. The method includes generating with a processing element a plurality of images of at least a portion of a patient's anatomy, acquiring data indicative of the portion of the patient's anatomy from the images, and determining a probability of a patient's response to a tongue-base treatment based on the acquired data.
