    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to determine the blood flow within the human nasal mucose and whether it is changed in patients with chronic rhinitis. Using a laser Doppler flowmeter (He-Ne Laser equipment PF2 type), we measured the nasal mucosa blood flow (NMBF) in a group of healthy young subjects 108 (18-25 years) and three types of chronic rhinitis 89 (chronic rhinitis 15, allergic rhinitis 44, atrophic rhinitis 30). A Laser Doppler probe was placed on six different points of the nasal mucose membrane. The study data indicate that the average index of the NMBF of human are retentive steady and decreased obviously in three types chronic rhinitis. So it may be concluded that detection of NMBF is a useful method for evaluation of the therapy effect of chronic rhinitis.
