Abstract:
Clinical assessment of olfactory dysfunction can be challenging. Because olfactory disturbances comprise most chemosensory abnormalities with imaging findings, this article focuses on the imaging of smell disorders. This article reviews the normal imaging appearance of the olfactory apparatus, discusses the respective roles of CT and MRI, provides illustrative imaging of typical pathologic lesions, and discusses a clinically based imaging strategy.
