Lung clearance index in healthy volunteers, measured using a novel portable system with a closed circuit wash-in.
<h4>Introduction</h4>Lung clearance index (LCI) is a sensitive measure of early lung disease, but adoption into clinical practice has been slow. Challenges include the time taken to perform each test. We recently described a closed-circuit inert gas wash-in method that reduces overall te...
