Body scan and breathing test for airway health
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial uses a special breathing test to measure how your airways react. It helps doctors understand airway tone and reactivity, which may relate to conditions like asthma.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be willing to do a breathing test.
- You need to be able to speak and understand English.
- You must have been referred for a methacholine challenge test (a test that checks airway sensitivity).
- You must be able to give consent and complete the breathing test.

This study looks at how well two breathing tests work for people who have shortness of breath. You will do a breathing test and an exercise test to help doctors better understand your symptoms.
This study uses advanced MRI imaging and breathing tests to understand how healthy lungs work. Researchers are developing new ways to measure lung function that might help doctors diagnose lung disease earlier in the future.
This study looks at how a newer breathing test (oscillometry) compares to the standard one in children during exercise. It may help doctors better understand lung function in kids with breathing problems.
This study compares a new breathing device to standard tests for diagnosing asthma and COPD. If you have been referred for breathing tests because your doctor suspects asthma or COPD, you may be able to join.
This study examines how obesity affects your breathing capacity and muscle strength, especially when your lungs show a restrictive pattern (difficulty expanding fully). Researchers will assess your body composition, physical function, and respiratory muscle endurance to better understand these connections.
This study looks at how weight and blood-sugar/fat changes in the body may affect the airways in people with asthma. You may be asked to complete breathing tests and possibly an airway procedure (bronchoscopy) to help researchers compare groups.
