Abstract
The diagnostic accuracy of FENO measurement was superior to that of the standard diagnostic spirometry in patients with symptoms suggestive of asthma. The use of FENO measurement and induced sputum Eos% together to diagnose asthma in clinical practice is more accurate than spirometry or FENO assessment alone and easier to perform.
