Pediatric Pulmonary Diagnostic Center
The Pediatric Pulmonary Diagnostic Center was established to effectively evaluate and formulate treatment plans for one of the most challenging groups with respiratory symptoms - the preschool child. Many of the tests are exclusive to National Jewish Health and not available elsewhere.
We offer tests to assess:
- Lung function and structure
- Lung volume/inflation
- Lung elasticity and compliance
- Exercise capability
- Mouth, throat and tongue functions
- Allergies
- Bone density
- Digestive tract anatomy and function
- Consequences of recurrent respiratory tract infections
