methods of existing analog inspection tools that screen for olfactory disorders through digital methods.
- Olfactory disorders appear as a precursor to a variety of causes and diseases, including dementia, Parkinson's disease, epidemiological diseases, and COVID-19.
- Standardized testing is required because the severity and cause of olfactory abnormalities can determine whether treatment or surgery is necessary.
- Early detection of dementia is becoming more important as the number of people with dementia increases with ageing population.
- Olfactory dysfunction is a precursor to neurodegenerative disorders such as dementia and Parkinson's disease and can be detected early through continuous examination. It is as accessible as the elderly can easily and simply examine because it can be visually judged by the image shown on the screen, rather than the way it is written.
- Since the outbreak of COVID-19, olfactory abnormalities have become more important.
- This is because loss of sense of smell has been identified as a leading symptom and sequelae of COVID-19.
