A Computational Comparison of the Multiple-breath Washout and Forced Oscillation Technique as Markers of Bronchoconstriction

Highlights • FOT index R5 responds to constriction, regardless of depth. • Certain FOT indices respond strongly to distal airway constriction. • MBW indices respond strongly to severity of bronchoconstriction. • Joint-interpretation of MBW and FOT indices has potential utility.
