Abstract：The obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a sleep apnea caused by repeated airway collapses. Anatomical abnormalities of the upper airway and related lesions have become the main cause of the disease. Considering the complex anatomy structure of the upper airway, many researchers in china and abroad utilize the medical imaging techniques and apply the methodology of bio-mechanics to analyze the various mechanisms of OSAS, so as to explore an effective treatment. This paper briefly introduces the background and recent progress in studies on the OSAS-related bio-mechanical behavior of the upper airway. Several main research methods are introduced, and the characteristic and future development of different methods are also analyzed and discussed.
