Summary

Asthma in children is recognized as a disease area with a high medical need. As the investigators move into this field it is necessary to improve the investigators knowledge of upper airway anatomical structure in paediatric patients. This study will provide airway/facial morphologies from controlled asthmatic patients. Limited facial morphology can be used in order to build models to study the delivery of medication through a device that requires for example a facemask. In this study the anatomical structure of the upper airway and the facial geometry will be evaluated using a Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scan. The scan will be taken in a population of 20 asthmatic children between 6 and 12 years old.
