Comparison of oscillometry devices using active mechanical test loads [PDF]

ERJ Open Research, 2019
Noninvasiveness, low cooperation demand and the potential for detailed physiological characterisation have promoted the use of oscillometry in the assessment of lung function.

Respiratory oscillometry identifies disease progression in interstitial lung disease [PDF]

BMJ Open Respiratory Research
Background Respiratory oscillometry is an effort-independent method of evaluating lung function. Its role in the monitoring of interstitial lung disease (ILD) is unclear.

Technical standards for respiratory oscillometry [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 2019
Oscillometry (also known as the forced oscillation technique) measures the mechanical properties of the respiratory system (upper and intrathoracic airways, lung tissue and chest wall) during quiet tidal breathing, by the application of an oscillating pressure signal (input or forcing signal), most commonly at the mouth.

Impulse Oscillometry

Advances in Respiratory Medicine, 2019
Pulmonary function testing involves a battery of tests from the simple pulse oximetry to the cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Impulse oscillometry (IOS) is one of the newly described pulmonary function tests. It is based on the old principle of forced oscillatory technique modified and refined as per research and advances. It involves the use of sound

Respiratory oscillometry with CT image analysis in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis following single lung transplant

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports
Oscillometry is an emerging pulmonary function testing tool that is conducted during tidal breaths with minimal patient effort. It is highly sensitive to changes in lung mechanics.

Forced Oscillation Technique for Monitoring the Respiratory Status of Children with Cystic Fibrosis: A Systematic Review

Children, 2021
Spirometry is considered the gold standard method for monitoring lung function of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) but it requires patients’ cooperation and therefore it is not useful for the majority of preschool-aged children.

Neutrino oscillometry

Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 2010
Neutrino oscillations are studied employing sources of low energy monoenergetic neutrinos following electron capture by the nucleus and measuring electron recoils. Since the neutrino energy is very low the oscillation length appearing in this electronic neutrino disappearance experiment can be so small that the full oscillation can take place inside ...

Three Weeks of Pulmonary Rehabilitation Do Not Influence Oscillometry Parameters in Postoperative Lung Cancer Patients

Medicina, 2022
Background: Thoracic surgery is a recommended treatment option for non-small cell lung cancer patients. An important part of a patient’s therapy, which helps to prevent postoperative complications and improve quality of life, is pulmonary rehabilitation (
