Abstract：
For decades spirometry has been the benchmark test for capturing lung function in children but its recognized limitations required the development of other techniques. This article introduces novel techniques in lung function assessment for pediatric patients, including multiple breath washout, impulse oscillometry, structured light plethysmography, and electrical impedance tomography, and common themes in interpreting the results. Challenges include standardization, reference data, and clinical integration of these innovative tools. Further research is ongoing to optimize these tests for clinical use, especially in diverse populations and pediatric settings.
摘要：
几十年来，肺活量测定一直是捕获儿童肺功能的基准测试，但其公认的局限性需要其他技术的发展。本文介绍了儿科患者肺功能评估的新技术，包括多次呼气冲洗，脉冲振荡法,结构光体积描记术，和电阻抗断层成像，以及解释结果的共同主题。挑战包括标准化、参考数据,以及这些创新工具的临床整合。进一步的研究正在进行，以优化这些测试的临床使用，特别是在不同的人群和儿科环境中。
