Olfactory Bulb Volume Reflects Olfactory Dysfunction and Network Organization: Insights From the Population‐Based Rhineland Study
Our findings demonstrate the importance of OB volume in detecting olfactory dysfunction. Moreover, they reveal that the OB contributes to odor identification both directly and by modulating central network function, offering new insights into olfactory dysfunction as a potential biomarker for neurodegeneration.
