5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Investigating nasal muco-ciliary clearance by scintigraphy
Detailed Description
The velocity and the retention of the nasal muco-ciliary clearance is going to be investigated with a salt particle inhaler and a placebo by the method nasal scintigraphy. The hypotheses is that nasal inhalation of salt particles enhance the nasal mucociliary clearance.
