Multiple breath nitrogen washout: a feasible alternative to mass spectrometry.

Multiple breath nitrogen washout: a feasible alternative to mass spectrometry.

<h4>Background</h4>The lung clearance index (LCI), measured by multiple breath washout (MBW), reflects global ventilation inhomogeneity and is a sensitive marker of early cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease. Current evidence is based on a customized mass spectrometry system that uses sulfu...
