A Novel Non-invasive Approach for Measuring Upper Airway Collapsibility in Mice

Introduction: Invasive procedures were previously developed for measuring pharyngeal collapsibility in rodents during expiration, when declining neuromuscular activity makes the airway unstable. We developed a non-invasive approach for streamlining collapsibility measurements by characterizing respo...
