Abstract
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways
characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness and airflow
obstruction. Chronic airway inflammation can lead to an
increase in thickness of airway smooth muscle which causes
airflow constriction and breathing difficulty. Clinical trials have
demonstrated significant improvements on asthma patients who
received bronchial thermoplasty (BT).
