Nasal nitric oxide measurement. This noninvasive screening test is performed by placing a soft olive in one nostril and aspirating air from the nostril into a chemiluminescence analyzer which measures the concentration of nitric oxide in parts per billion. The child blows against a resistor to close the velum and prevent contamination with lower airway gases. Photo credit: Sharon D Dell
