Article Synopsis
  • The study examines olfactory dysfunction following head trauma, highlighting challenges in diagnosis due to injuries in olfactory brain areas and the lack of standardized imaging criteria.
  • Researchers compared subjective olfactory function and brain volume (gray-matter and white-matter) between 56 patients with traumatic olfactory dysfunction and 45 patients with other causes of olfactory issues.
  • Results showed that the trauma group scored significantly lower on olfactory tests, indicating more profound dysfunction compared to the control group, with the findings suggesting a need for improved diagnostic criteria for traumatic olfactory disorders.
