Can HRCT be used as a marker of airway remodelling in children with difficult asthma? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Whole airway wall thickening on high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is reported to parallel thickening of the bronchial epithelial reticular basement membrane (RBM) in adult asthmatics. A similar relationship in children with difficult
