Technology
- We use cutting-edge technology to evaluate respiratory function: plethysmography, lung diffusion testing (gas exchange), spirometry, airway resistance measured by the interrupter technique, exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) breath test.
- We perform bronchial challenge tests with cold air, methacholine, allergens and treadmill stress tests.
- We have a day hospital where, under the safest possible conditions for children, we do the challenge testing required for the diagnosis and monitoring of allergies.
- We work with Hospital Clínic de Barcelona's Immunology Department on the extended molecular diagnosis of allergies, as well as on basophil activation test methods.
