Resistance of the respiratory system measured with forced oscillation technique (FOT) correlates with bronchial thermoplasty response

BACKGROUND: Bronchial Thermoplasty (BT) is an endoscopic treatment for severe asthma using radiofrequency energy to target airway remodeling including smooth muscle. The correlation of pulmonary function tests and BT response are largely unknown. Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT) is an effort-indep...
