Summary
Nasal polyposis (NP) is a disease affecting 4% of the population. This disease is frequently accompanied by olfactory disorders (41%-84% of patients) that affect patients' quality of life. The aim of this study is to show brain activity differences in olfactory areas before and after surgery in each patient and between patient groups (normosmic, hyposmic and anosmic one) using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). Brain activity will be measured by the intensity of brain signals and of the size of olfactory areas during olfactory stimulation before and after surgery. We suppose that fMRI could predict whether or not the patient will be able to recover smell after surgery.
