Clinical applications of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis of renal lesions - a systematic review.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In children, exercise-induced dyspnea is a common symptom that can be due to dysfunctional breathing. EVH test has bee used especially in elite athletes as bronchoprovocation test. Currently, there are only few studies on the EVH test. New research methods are required alongside the traditionally used tests ...
