Abstract

The main symptoms of asthma include thickening of the airway wall and constriction of the airways. Peak expiratory flow and spirometry are commonly employed in diagnosing and treating asthma. The forced expiratory volume in 6 seconds (FEV6) and the forced expiratory volume in 3 seconds (FEV3) were assessed in this study. Its connection to structural alterations in the airways is unclear, however. We aim to examine the connection between 3D CT scans and asthma spirometry
