MEASUREMENTS OF FLOWS OVER AN AXISYMMETRIC BODY WITH VARIOUS APPENDAGES IN A WIND TUNNEL: THE DARPA SUBOFF EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM

The progression of lesions in otosclerosis is slow resulting in small and insignificant changes to the HRCT features. Therefore, a repeat HRCT evaluations prior to surgery is not necessary for patients who have had a previous HRCT evaluation within 2 years of the operation. The small changes in HRCT manifestation near the FAF were still correlated with negative effects on the ABG which could cause worsened hearing thresholds over this timeframe.
