On April 29, the team led by Wu Dawei from the Department of Otolaryngology of Peking University Third Hospital published a research article titled "A Novel Olfactory Cleft CT Staging System Reveals a Tri-Zone Anatomical Model and Biphasic Progression in Central Compartment Atopic Disease" online in Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (IF: 11.2).

The team broke through the limitations of traditional olfactory cleft imaging assessment and, for the first time, proposed the multi-sectional olfactory cleft opacification staging system. By evaluating the degree of opacification at the top and the middle-lower portions of the olfactory cleft across six coronal sections, the system first proposed a tri-zone anatomical model of central compartment atopic disease and a biphasic progression pattern of opacification, providing a clear anatomical roadmap for precision treatment of olfactory dysfunction in patients with refractory sinusitis.

Associate Researcher Wu Dawei is the corresponding author of the paper. Pan Xingchen, an eight-year undergraduate student at Peking University Health Science Center; Li Yankun, a master's student in the Department of Otolaryngology; and doctoral student Jiang Xincen are co-first authors.
