title: [Assessment of mucociliary clearance using the radioaerosol method in chronic lung diseases].
abstract: The radioaerosol technique with the use of radioalbumin from the TSK-5 kit and of an ultrasonic inhaler makes it possible to determine primarily the mucociliary clearance of the central parts of the tracheobronchial tree. In patients without any pathology of the respiratory organs, the clearance of the inhaled radiopharmaceutical constitutes 45.5 +/- 9.5 percent for an hour. In patients with pulmonary pathology, the characteristics of the mucociliary clearance vary from dramatically decreased to normal ones depending on the disease pattern, exacerbation phase or remission.
