Assessment of airway hyperreactivity: comparison of forced spirometry and body plethysmography for methacholine challenge tests
INTRODUCTION: Bronchial challenge tests by inhalation of aerosolized methacholine (MCH) are commonly used in the clinical diagnosis of airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). While the detection of airway narrowing relies on the patient's cooperation performing forced spirometry, body plethysmographi...
