A sleep test diagnoses sleep apnea. DISE can give clues, but Dr Kasey Li is against it saying it gives a lot of false positives from his experience. Home test + polysomnography is his standard, along with using his experience to review your CBCT scans

False positives? If you snore, you snore. All DISE is going to do is help figure out what's causing the snoring. I don't know this Dr Li, but you're making them sound like they're part of a cult.

I defer to his expertise for a lot as he's considered one of the top experts in sleep apnea surgery in the world. He's had more cases for example on MMA than aggregate studies in the literature

He considers DISE to show collapse that would not normally occur. Because under dise you are heavily sedated. Like after drinking alcohol, the airway is not the same as a normal state.
