Evaluation of expiratory capacity with severe asthma following bronchial thermoplasty

Bronchial thermoplasty (BT) is a bronchoscopic treatment to reduce the amount of smooth muscle in the bronchial wall in patients with severe asthma. Reducing smooth muscle in the airway wall reportedly alleviates air trapping and decreases expiratory volume. In the current study, expiratory computed...
