All participants
  • Device: Airway Oscillometer
    The termoflo c-100 Airwave Oscillometer System is intended to measure respiratory system impedance using the Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT).
  • Diagnostic Test: Phase Resolved Functional Lung MRI
    The Phase Resolved Functional Lung (PREFUL) MRI technique acquires images of the lung so that measures of ventilatory defect percentage can be calculated.
