Description
Budin and co-authors compared two lung function methods across diseases that stiffen or obstruct the lungs, in a pilot study published in 2025. One method seals the patient in a glass box to measure volumes precisely. The other sends gentle pressure waves through the airway during normal breathing. Both see partly the same things, but direct head-to-head data were thin. The team reviewed 69 adults treated at a Romanian lung hospital.
Half had obstructive disease, half restrictive. Each had both tests. Correlations between the methods were tallied, with attention to trapped air and small airway trouble. If the quick wave test tracks the box test, clinics could spare patients the harder exam. Pilot data like this justify larger confirmatory work. The study maps where the two agree.
