abstract：:Aspiration is a major cause of lung disease in infants and young children. As the symptoms and signs of aspiration are not specific, the diagnosis is delayed due to a low index of suspicion and low sensitivity and specificity of the available diagnostic tests. In the present study, we evaluated the utility of microsph...
